We have an awesome new single from Elephants and Stars, titled “Bled out at the Scene”, which sees the band surround themselves with dark pop and combine that sound with their indie-rock atmospheric energy. This acts as the follow-up to their 2022 debut album, titled “Last Chance Power Drive”.
Elephants and Stars are a dynamic band that represents the culmination of the long-standing creative partnership between Manfred Sittmann and bassist Mike MacMillan. With roots in the late-’90s/early-’00s groups Soap Opera and The First Time, Elephants and Stars showcase the musical prowess and evolution of its members. Led by singer-guitarist Manfred Sittmann, the band also features Adam Seed on lead guitar, Michael MacMillan on bass, and Stewart McKinney on drums. With a rich history of collaboration, Manfred Sittmann and Mike MacMillan have consistently shared their musical journey, forming Soap Opera and later The First Time. Their achievements include signing with Bullseye Records, releasing albums like “Poised” and “Welcome to the Tangiers”, and earning critical acclaim, including the Best Punk Record accolade at the 2005 Toronto Independent Music Awards for their debut album “It’s On”. Known for their dynamic sound and infectious energy, Elephants and Stars continue to captivate audiences with their unique blend of rock and punk influences, promising an exhilarating musical experience for fans old and new.
Transforming dark pop vibes into their rock sound, right at the beginning, Elephants and Stars come out swinging, with an incredible bass rhythm that will hook the listener in from the get-go as “Bled out at the Scene” builds up. With heavy rock influences surrounded by dark pop and indie-rock, this track makes an impact from the very start and doesn’t stop, building on that wall of sound to create an unforgettable impression on the minds of every listener. Taking slight influence from the ’00s mainstream rock bands, we can see why Elephants and Stars are quickly rising in their career as a band. Shining a light on each of the band members, “Bled out at the Scene” allows for stunning instrumental segments that really help to flesh out the single and add character to the rest of the band as a whole, not to mention how awesome the song sounds itself. The song’s lyrics are a meditation from Manfred Sittmann as he attempts to deal with the difficult decision of a break-up he’s going through and the angry and bitter feelings, alongside contempt, that come to the surface because of it. A powerful song, with incredibly emotional and meaningful vocals, honest lyrics, and a brilliant atmospheric indie-rock sound, “Bled out at the Scene” is the awesome rock song that you’ve been waiting for.
