"Five years ago California band Elogy would be major label and radio darlings, but we live in a new paradigm for music and so they go it independently.

We wanted to know more about how a band that five years ago would have easily been snatched up by the majors and pushed hard on mainstream radio is navigating the new music distribution paradigm..."

"One is a consistently engaging listen, stuffed to the gills with anthemic choruses and slice & dice programming that will make Passion Pit green with envy. The soaring “Eager We Are” will surely land in a CW show in the next six months, while “Welcome to Inertia” out-Aqualung’s Aqualung, skillfully blending major keys with full-blown melancholia."

File Under: Expansive Atmospheric Rock
Elogy – “One:” This record has the ability to come across as mainstream pop rock one moment, then completely immersive the next. Its engulfing atmospheres paint sonic tidal waves that crash down upon the listener, completely enfolding them in the bands stirring, technically precise sound. It shouldn’t take too long into the disc to realize Elogy are incredibly adept musicians, something they waste no time showcasing, and something they continue to do throughout this record. Technical abilities aside, this is truly a stunning affair. Its expansive nature saves it from the atypical redundancies you’d normally expect to see with any release, and at only nine tracks the disc never fails to come off as fresh and vibrant. This record might be best summarized in one word – grandiose. Just about everything this disc entails – its guitars, vocals, drums, melodies, hooks, musicality – can very easily be described as grandiose. The only thing this record asks in return is for you to press play and let it surprise you.
