A hedonistic synth-pop whirlwind with a kitsch retro aesthetic, Ignore The Elephant are a band with their finger on the pulse.
The Gothenburg-based quintet have unleashed a searing offering in fresh record “Told You So”. Melding up-tempo frivolity with typical Scandi charm, the track’s chorus is reminiscent of a top notch Walk The Moon offering (with a higher concentration of freakishly delightful indie).
It’s a new direction for the band – having swapped indie rock for indie pop – that has produced a cracking sound worthy of your attention. “We felt really frustrated about how some people seem to amplify their Misery,” notes the band of the track. “[they] use it as a tool for getting attention, rather than actually ask themselves why they feel bad, and search for ways to get better.”
