About Elvis Depressedly, Lvl Up, Yohuna


Elvis Depressedly formed in 2011. The band has released four records, Save The Planet Kill Yourself, Mickey's Dead, Holo Pleasures via Birdtapes and New Alhambra.[Their first extended play, titled Goner, was released in 2011. Their second studio album, titled Mickey's Dead, was released in 2013 via Orchid Tapes. In November of 2014, the band signed to Run For Cover Records. In 2015, the band released their fourth studio album, titled New Alhambra...more on that below.

"In many ways, new Alhambra is an auditory homage to what has shaped lead singer Mathew Lee Cothran's life. Its title, as any hardcore pro-wrestling fan will recognize, credits the Philadelphia arena that birthed its most legendary and extreme version of it, and the use of samples from wrestling shows and late night televangelists serve as a reference to his upbringing. The album was characteristically made with outdated equipment and limited by only one microphone, with Mike "Dr. Vink" Roberts playing an essential role on bass that enriches the rockier resonation in comparison to elvis depressedly's previous releases. Cothran and Delaney were constantly on the move during the recording process thanks to their new found career freedom, but none of it takes away from new alhambra fully texturized shift toward brightly melancholic noise-pop inspired by Cothran's favorite un- sung heroes such as Waterboys, Prefab Sprout and Emperor X."
