The Winter Is Coming

Elf Power

Woodland psych-pop filtered through tape hiss and winter fog. A dense, murky collection of surrealist fables that feels both cozy and slightly ominous.

It's like a fuzzy, slightly spooky storybook come to life through a broken tape deck.

A cozy but unsettling sense of isolation, like being safe inside while a strange storm gathers outside.

Moments Worth Waiting For
the apocalyptic drone that swells and threatens to swallow the melody on the opening track
the transition into the ten-minute closer where the folk structure dissolves into a psychedelic haze
the unsettling contrast between the upbeat melody and the dark imagery of a skeleton licking wounds
