Elkhorn has long traversed the valleys between fried cosmic psychedelia and American primitive, particularly the latter style's reverence for a wide range of folk and blues idioms ranging from country records compilations to the Mississippi Sheiks. While the pair is best known for their acoustic guitar explorations, 'Other Worlds' continues their recent experiments with other instrumental possibilities. For instance, on the previous Elkhorn release 'On the Whole Universe AI All Directions,' Drew Gardner switched to vibraphone and drums, with Jesse Sheppard playing 12-string guitar. 'Other Worlds,' on the other hand, finds them in a recognizable 'rock trio' format (in improvisational mode) - Drew is on electric guitar, with Jesse playing bass, and they are again joined by Ian McColm on drums, with the free-flowing groove he brings. On the opening track 'Watching The Skies' you can feel the forward propulsion this -dare I say- power trio sets up, a cosmic widescreen which Elkhorn proceed to rock and groove across the whole of 'Other Worlds.' Three flawless musicians in their own right, together they form a telepathic psychic link that taps into the otherworldly flow that is 'Other Worlds,' as the synergy created by Jesse and Ian leaves Drew plenty of space to take off on exhilarating and soaring flights of fuzzy haze fire that results in a musical journey toward transcendence. Elkhorn demonstrate again and again that there is no height they won't scale, no direction they won't travel. Have Elkhorn ever sounded as heavy or as on fire as the recordings laid down here? You be the judge. The trio is multitudes. The trio is one. Limited to 300 copies on black vinyl. Co-release with Feeding Tube Records.
