Melophobia

Cage the Elephant

A restless pivot toward transparency. Jagged garage rock riffs meet shimmering psychedelia and raw, confessional lyrics recorded in a state of creative isolation.

October 4, 2013 · RCA

A restless, neon-lit exploration of isolation and the search for authentic connection.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive transition from the eerie, skeletal verse of Come a Little Closer into its soaring, wide-screen psychedelic chorus.
The jarring, abrasive brass section that interrupts the groove of Black Widow, creating a sense of beautiful sonic violence.
The vulnerable, stripped-back acoustic fragility of Cigarette Daydreams that slowly builds into a lush, nostalgic anthem.
