Elks’ criptic Brooklyn metal mythology – Live at Santos on 09.03

We quote from our NYC Open Blog (we gave up editing this): "Long ago in the days of ancient kings there was peace, and all were happy – but HARK! A sudden darkness en-cloaked the realm of Brooklyn, and hailing from the outer reaches of the galaxy came ELKS shooting lasers from steel antlers, shattering souls and melting brains. They brewed a drought of New York souls from New York bros and subjugated the realm. Never satisfied, they loaded what terrified wretches remained into a gold sarcophagus and aimed it at the sun. Soon all would be melted by the glory of their heaviness. ELKS recently completed their first EP, three of the six tracks can be heard on their Myspace. Upcoming dates: FRI 9/3 @ SANTOS PARTY HOUSE w/ Today is the Day, A Storm of Light THUR 10/28 @ MUSIC HALL OF WILLIAMSBURG w/ JEFF The Brotherhood, Ninjasonik, Liquor Store" – (as posted in The Deli’s Open Blog – post your band’s entries, videos, and Mp3s here).
