Elf Fatima have started to bring a post-rock edge into their songwriting, inspired by such acts as early Pink Floyd, Mogwai, Mono (Japan) and Godspeed You! Black Emperor. The band stands out from other Hong Kong acts, with their far reaches of musical experimentation.
Elf Fatima have played some legendary gigs over the years, including a performance at The Coliseum courtesy of Commercial Radio and gigs organized by the former music magazine MCB (Music Colony Bi-weekly) including a tribute concert to Ian Curtis.
In 2004 the band opened for Mogwai for their Hong Kong concert.
In 2005 Elf Fatima released their second, self-titled album with its psychedelic, Noisenik and Post-Rock influences. The album received critical acclaim having been self-produced and self-published by Elf Fatima, mastered by Kitmatic, a local indie talent and distributed by Monitor Records.

Our new album "Herbarium" is
out now on CdBaby (MP3 so far, physical CD is on its way).
Diverse palette of styles (post-rock,
ambient, electronica, trip-hop, with elements of noise, dub,
neoclassic and free improvisation), united by cinematic, slightly
pensive mood.
«Herbarium» is called so
because of heterogeneity of «songs», which can be
compared to miscellaneous leaves in the album, still being belonged
to the family of trees. Trying to avoid non-alive metaphors here,
only thought of diversity and warm and innermost feeling that
herbarium is capable to conjure up. «... This leaf I picked up
in the park where I met her, and this - I sat by the river,
contemplating...». So tracks were created – one was captured
in some magic jam, another – recorded layer by layer and
meticulously mixed then, next – cut from previous sessions and so
on.
All compositions are united by Poostosh
sense of music – mostly pensive, spatial, tender and experimental.
There's a lot of soul and charisma in every leaf... So please let
your soul look over our HERBARIUM.
