Elephantitus blends a bold and raw sound with gritty guitar riffs, thunderous drums, soaring vocals and unrelenting energy!
One half of the father/son duo, Mike Fern, sings and plays bass (with a split signal that goes to separate guitar and bass rigs, for those musician nerds!) creating a layered and full sound that defies their minimalist setup. Max Fern, on drums and backup vocals, drives the rhythm with precision and passion, perfectly complementing his father's unbridled intensity. Together, Elephantitus embodies the spirit of rock with a modern edge, offering electrifying performances that leave audiences captivated \m/
Lyrics
Verse 1
Leaving flags with bloodstains
Only moving out about night
So we don't have straight eye contact made
When it all detonates
Taking the higher road instead
Sooner or later we'll be dead
All the world is shy
Chorus
I know you're hiding there
The comfort of your lair
The breadcrumbs give it away
You never know what's coming your way
Why keep running back
Right into the trap
You learn from your mistakes
You just do whatever it takes
Verse 2
Maybe you showed me somewhere
A doting style bitch time now
The hours may have shoulders down
A downer way low in life
I don't wanna be your lesson
I don't wanna lay that claim
Who wants to climb that icy mountain
Before it all melts away
Chorus
I know you're hiding there
The comfort of your lair
The breadcrumbs give it away
You never know what's coming your way
Why keep running back
Right into the trap
And learn from your mistakes
You just do whatever it takes
Bridge
Hey man
Hey man we'll be alright
Alright alright alright yeah alright alright
Hey man we'll be alright
Hey man we'll be alright
Alright alright alright yeah alright alright
Hey man we'll be alright
Chorus
I know you're hiding there
The comfort in your stare
The breadcrumbs give it away
You just do whatever it takes
