    Elephant9 'Walk The Nile'

    £16.99

    Their debut '?Dodovoodoo'? received excellent international reviews upon it's release in 2008 with top marks from Mojo, Uncut and The Word while AMG called it amazing. With '?Walk The Nile'? they are not only delivering the goods again, but it's a general improvement on all accounts.

    More concerts have made them an even tighter entity and the musicianship on display is simply dazzling. Sporting five originals from Ståle Storløkken and one from Nikolai Hængsle Eilertsen, the all analogue recording from Grand Sport Studios in Oslo gives it a gorgeous, organic late sixties, early seventees feel combining elements from rock, jazz, psychedelia, funk and prog. Simply fantastic stuff and highly recommended.

    Elephant9 is Ståle Storløkken (Supersilent) on Hammond organ, Fender Rhodes and synths, Nikolai Hængsle Eilertsen (Big Bang) on bass and Torstein Lofthus (Shining) on drums.

    Elephant9 'Greatest Show On Earth'

    £12.99

    Elephant9 blends the virtuosic precision of King Crimson and Yes with the jazz-fusion explorations of electric Miles, Weather Report and the Tony Williams Lifetime. Key and time signatures change constantly as the quartet helters and skelters between tightly composed sections, driving kosmische interludes and bucolic Canterbury excursions. Rolling Stone (US)

    This sums it up pretty well when it comes to reference points, but it's also necessary to add that Elephant9 have developed quite a personal and identifiable style - through previous albums, touring and close collaborations with Reine Fiske and Terje Rypdal.


    On this, their fifth studio album, they are back to the core trio of their two first albums, with Ståle Storløkken (keyboards), Nikolai Hængsle (bass) and Torstein Lofthus (drums).

    "The Greatest Show On Earth" displays some truly astonishing playing and is a more dynamic, structured and focused album with all tracks clocking in between five and seven minutes.

    Tracklisting:
    1. Way Of Return
    2. Actionpack1
    3. Farmer's Secret
    4. Dancing With Mr. E
    5. Mystery Blend
    6. Freaks
