LOWEST SHARED DESCENT cd/lp
"A record that isn't just a magistral essay of 'noise' music but also faithful representation of that 'to feel noise' that it has in its dna the expression of bestial instincts, state allucinations, injurious depressions."
Fabio Polvani - BLOW UP 118 - Italian Music Magazine
"Lowest Shared Descent is the exact one contrary of what it picks up money and consents today, it is for this it deserves never attention: it is still possible to make music with the bowels in movement that crosses the here and now of the rock of the last twenty years."
Raoul Duke - RUMORE 194 - Italian Music Magazine
"...over every reasonable doubt one of the most interesting bands currently around..."
Michele Giorgi - www.audiodrome.it
"Lowest Shared Descent is staggering stuff, but only for those with strong constitutions and adventurous mindsets – is the musical equivalent of exploring an abandoned fully-automated abattoir."
Eddie Thomas - www.subba-cultcha.com
"Dead Elephant stir in a zone of border; in an imaginary space that we could define, quoting David Cronenberg, "the dead zone" of the hard music. A space from which the group draws a heterogeneous identity in the stylistic references, but also strong and recognizable; settled to the core of a suffered anger and nervous."
Simone Varrale - www.kronic.it
"A totally free approach motorized by an unwavering punk energy"
www.metalorgie.com
"Acute. Tearing to pieces. Deep like the abysses of the mind."
Emanuele Tamagnini - www.musicaroma.it/nerds
"If you are wondering what is album's inmost aim, the answer is simple: it is perfect to kick everybody in the ass, just to use a Frenchism."
Claustrophobic, visceral, vicious, heavy, psichedelic, unpredictable these are the first adjectives that come in mind if you are trying to describe the North Italy power trio.
The loud sonic assault of the band has a whole range of influences that pass through the energy of noise band like Unsane, Cherubs, Jesus Lizard, Colossamite and the psichedelic attitudes of Ash Ra Tempel, Cluster, Neurosis. Trying to go over the stagnant preconceptions of heavy music Dead Elephant speak to the Cerebral and to the Bowels including elements of doom, krautrock, noise, post-hc and industrial.
Born in 2004 they received major receipt over the Italy where they have collaborated with Unfortunate Miracle Records (Usa - label of Helios Creed, Christpunchers and Lair of the Minotaur) for the release of the debut cd-ep called Sing The Separation (2005) followed by gigs (more than 30) shared with a lot of bands. The most famous are Capricorns (uk), Zu (ita), Lair of the Minotaur (usa), Joe Lally (Fugazi - usa) ecc.
The new record is called “Lowest Shared Descent” and was recorded by Maurizio Borgna @ Garage Ermetico Leumann of Turino, mixed by David Lenci @ Red House Recording of Senigallia (AN) and Mastered by Dave Harris @ Studio B Mastering of Charlotte NC – Usa. Two important collaborations on the new stuff: with Luca Mai (sax player in ZU) and Eugene Robinson (singer in Oxbow).
