Lord Elephant Sign to Heavy Psych Sounds

Lest a day should go by without some sort of news from Italy’s Heavy Psych Sounds, word comes down the PR wire that the kingpin label has snagged countrymen rockers Lord Elephant for the release of their debut album. The Florentine trio reportedly had a record out last year called Cosmic Awakening, and as that’s off their Bandcamp, I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if that turns out to be what Heavy Psych Sounds is pre-hyping with the signing announcement here, but you never really know until you get there, I guess.

In any case, a new band — even one that’s been around for six years — getting picked up by this label is legit news, even with the preorders and album details a week away. They join other recent signees ŞTIU NU ŞTIU (whose album info I still need to post) and Somnus Throne, whose new record rules, and there’s plenty of other good company to keep besides. Cheers to the band.

Words in blue follow:

BIOGRAPHY

Lord Elephant was raised by Edoardo and Leandro in 2016, after the split of their previous “napalm blues” band Random’N’Roll and the entry of Tommaso Urzino behind the drum kit. With diversified and complementary experiences, the trio melt its passion for blues, stoner, fuzzy and improvised music into a personal journey of acid psychedelia, graced with heaviness and tasty riffs as well. After almost five years in the work, the DEBUT ALBUM seals the final result of the long road made by Lord Elephant in their musical research, finding in Heavy Psych Sound Records the best possible partner to expand their sound as far as they can!

LORD ELEPHANT is
Leandro Gaccione – Guitars
Edoardo De Nardi – Bass
Tommaso Urzino – Drums
