Elephant - For A Friend / For A Friend Pt. 2 single
Ever since I heard their debut EP when it was released in 2021, Rotterdam’s Elephant have continuously impressed me with two more albums and now the first two singles from their third album, scheduled to be released in March. “For A Friend”, the first single from that album has been released as a 7” on orange vinyl through the Paradiso Vinyl Club and is another great shot of sunshine-y melancholy rock with a lazy groove and hooks that will have you singing long after the song is over. The flipside contains “For A Friend, Pt 2”, a moody, ethereal instrumental soundscape, enhanced by the sounds of a crackling fire, that is brilliantly slated to be the album’s closing track. Also, while it has nothing to do with this single, do yourself a favor and check out their next single "20k", a stunningly hypnotic track that at its very core has elements that will be familiar to fans of the band's previous work, but with more of a hip-hop beat and the use of vocoder that finds them really expanding their sound.
