While She Sleeps are on the verge of releasing their fourth studio album ‘So What?’ and to celebrate the imminent arrival, they’ve dropped a further new song from it. ‘Elephant’ is a visceral and cutting commentary on the state of the world today and our reactions to the environment we find ourselves in. “Enough is enough, stop the world I want to get off.”
This song follows a series of stunning self-produced music videos that have whet fans’ appetites for the album. The Guilty Party, Anti-Social and Haunt Me have showcased a diverse range of influences and sounds from the Sheffield band of brothers.
Another pre-curser to the record was premiered last week in the form of a 40 minute documentary about the journey the band had making it.
While She Sleeps are currently on a headline tour of Europe, which will culminate with a sold-out show at The Roundhouse this Friday, the day the album is out. This performance will also feature a special guest appearance from a live choir.
