I finally got to finish all of the Radio Hours that Elephant Graveyard has put up, and man, I was blown away by the last two. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed all of them, but this is some next level shit. A lot of them borrow from that kind of fantastical, old-timey radio storytelling that all at once feels like a warm blanket, menacing and cathartic. They have great music taste and the mixing coupled with the visuals are insane. It hits all of the right spots for me. It seems to be a perspective from a very specific place and time that I can easily understand, recognize, and feel. The Berger influence seems obvious, but I'd be truly shocked to find out that these guys aren't FOTs. Their perspective very much feels of that world. If not from Newbridge, from some remote Canadian sister city. I am so sad I don't have anything new to watch from them now.
This one got me. I will probably watch it again.
Edit: I am a liar. I didn't know these guys had a channel and were broadcasting these things live on our precious Twitch until about month or so ago, so I missed all of the past live streams. TONIGHT at 10PM ET they are streaming an episode that they did live like a year ago, but never put up the video. SO! I do have something new to watch from them! Tonight! Then everyone will be very bewildered and sad, but understanding.
Waiting.
