On their debut full length album, CIGADENT, Hills of Elysium present an edgy blend of punk, metal, and hard rock elements, comparable to the musical stylings of bands like Jack off Jill, Human Waste Project, and Animal Alpha. Fusing influences from an array of genres, CIGADENT takes the listener on a musical roller coaster ride, from dark, yet pop sensible tracks like Planet Full of Strangers & Ghosting, to angst-driven, heavy tracks like Tax the Obese & Bullets vs. Bullhorns. Hills of Elysium also pay homage to their predecessors and include a cover of Jack off Jill’s "Angels Fuck" on the album, staying fairly true to the original, but adding that Hills of Elysium brand. CIGADENT is full of heavy and melodic guitars, distorted, raunchy bass lines, hard hitting drum beats, dynamic vocals, and catchy, thought provoking lyrics, and is sure to keep the A.D.D. generation's full attention, from start to finish.
CIGADENT was produced by Justin Armstrong and recorded at Robert Lang Studios, Shoreline, WA.
Mastered by Grammy Winning Engineer, Adam Ayan at Gateway Mastering, Portland, ME.

Put together the first music video for one of the songs, that being for the song "Eel Marsh House", which is based on the movie "The Woman In Black". Wasn't sure to name it that instead of 'Eel Marsh..." ...Eel Marsh House being where the woman in black 'lived', and now haunts it. Though, she seems to haunt the general area of the village as well as the House. If anyone catches her gaze, looks into her eyes....a child will die, usually from the family of the person unfortunate to look at her. As you see what happens to the story's main character at the end.
Hope you like it, that's about all for now, Cheers! Rob
