about
Acid Elephant is a kick-ass stoner rock band from Pori, Finland, said also to be as heavy as a dying, overweight mammoth. The story of the band starts from a ramones-punk-trio which was formed by Miksa (bass) and Ojis (guitar) at fall 2005. Already during the same year the former drummer KK Willis left the band as a duo to reshape their form anew. The first step towards the present form was taken in 2007 as Miksa started to play together with the drummer of Arctodus, Roope. It took until December 2008, though, that Miksa, Ojis and Roope unofficiallylish officially formed this stoner band - naked. In a sauna. The band was short a vocalist, though. As odd as it was, a local musicians internet community, muusikoiden.net saved the band and in May 2009 - as Ojis was live action role playing in the forest wearing pickles - Miksa and Roope hired Ilpo (guitar & vocals) and the group was brought together. After the musical disagreements between Ojis and Miksa became unbearable in March 2010, Ojis was forced to leave the band. The Elephants continued thus as a trio, their music continuing to evolve. During the time after Ojis' departure and a few short sabbath periods their sound had become to be reminiscent of their name, being acid and elephantine. 3.7.2010 they released "People Go Missing" EP via web and this debut publication has been since freely downloadable at last.fm. After releasing PGM, though, the Elephants didn't stay laying in the fire for long, but went quickly to studio,
