ELDER

The stoner rock legends perform their masterwork of a record, Lore (2015), in its entirety at A Colossal Weekend! The album is turning 10 years old, it was a watershed moment for Elder, making the band a unique voice in the rock underground with their enormous gamut of inspiration in their sound, including psychedelic, stoner, prog, space, heavy and post rock.

‍

The interplay between groovy heaviness, weaving melodies, and unpredictable changes in the atmosphere, Elder’s songs unfold as meanderings into unchartered cosmic territory. Faithful to the riff, the quartet investigates the limit of human understanding – as in the song “Legend”: “The whispering night//tracks in the snow//crossing the threshold//of what we all know.”
