Don't know if there has been a thread on this yet but been listening to Elephant Shell and it is fanfuckingtastic.
Wondered what people's opinions of them were? Are they playing any festivals?

They are playing in Brighton in July
so I imagine they will pop into a festival.
I really like their EP and LP for different reasons.. I say this a lot but I have an unusual love for 'Listen To The Math' even though I know its not one of their strongest songs :P
they're playing v festival :(
they are definitely not playing reading & leeds (says their keyboard player)
they're pretty good!
V. . . . . .
wtf?
I guess....
they played Reading last year?
Still doesn't justify why they're playing V
They weren't great at Reading either
it just felt like they didn't quite fill out the tent, I enjoyed them though.
the specific quote was
V is their big UK festival this year so I guess that doesn't rule them out from playing other smaller festivals. The guy said they had an awesome time at Reading last year and would love to go back in the future.
This is all from here (you might need an account to read it): http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2829205
the album has "meh'd" me
i've barely listened to it. the EP however, is fantastic... shame they couldn't stay on that form in my opinion.
awesome live though.
