NEW BIO COMING SOON..........
Press:
"They generate genuine power. 'Get Some' uses the dynamics of the pulse to good effect and 'Blow Away' muscles in on Snow Patrol territory - in beating Keane to a pulp they wouldn't need to break a sweat. The songs seem to smolder, ignite and then continue with some internal pyhrric logic of their own; 'Thicker Skin' throws up a thick sheet of melodic noise...this band could be huge.
-AMERICANA UK
"Eight must-hear bands from B.C. that are a-okay: (Elias) succeed in making the kind of pulsating, loud rock that the Mars Volta or Radiohead might approve of in equal turns."
-SPIN.COM
"Every band has particular strengths and, for these guys, it's their vocals. Falling somewhere between Radiohead and Nada Surf, they have a great sound that they make all their own. Instrumentally, each song goes in odd, unexpected directions and makes the listener pay attention. Particularly good is 'Whale Watching.' There isn't a chord of filler on the whole disc."
-CHARTATTACK
"Canadian band Elias has absolutely everything it takes to catapult themselves to indie stardom. The songs are pensive and thoughtful. Yet, this doesn't detract from the band's ability to assert themselves through some heavier, layered guitar arrangements. Steady, rhythmic verses allow for the band to really take flight on their choruses. Keep your eyes peeled, I think Elias might do some pretty considerable things in the near future.
