3. ELIAS HULK underground rock crew formulate their toxic stew with highly desirable hard rock chunks and non-smoky blues-psychedelics pasted with underground rock flavors and a dose of progressive-ism. The outcome is an interesting taste that’s gentle, dynamic, and powerful. There’s a calm vigilance mixed with a harder, freaky flavors throughout all eight tracks, and vocalist Peter Thorpe delivers the works in a tranquil, soothing tone that at times can spawn a gritty texture ala

5. & best of UK any of the underground glories.
   
   “Anthology of Dreams” moves along with a mostly vibrant, thumping rhythm, a short cymbal-heavy chorus, and bluesy vocals that comfortably slide over the din like a hang glider over a battlefield. “Nightmare” is cacophonous with throbbing, impromptu drum work, a craggy main riff, and grainier vocals. This moves strategically into the composed “Been Around Too Long”, a soft, serenely sung walk in the rain with fidgety percussion commandeering a silky solo, meanwhile “Yesterday’s Trip”, a track that sounds more the boisterous continuation of the previous tune, is pounding in its delivery and antagonistic like a punch-drunk brawler.
   
   Side two opens with “We Can Fly”. From the stuffed-up, Black Sabbath Ozzy-esque vocals to the lengthy, Bill Ward-like drumming at the track’s center, an idle Sabbath fan just may mistake the downtrodden pitch and plodding, bass-driven step for early Black Sabbath.
   
   Chalk up another for the legends
   Calypso-like guitars waver in the melancholy of “Free”, an aural ode to the depressed soul, the scorned lover, and the impoverished. Glints of hopefulness light a galloping chorus, and sentimental lyrics are easily decipherable in Thorpe’s peaceful, un-scuffed resonance. Words die in “Delhi Blues”, an overwhelming, jangling guitar ensemble that for the most part perpetuates “Free” and on its own becomes irritating after the first three minutes. Classic ‘70s warble…that funk-enthused, fret-board-crooking stuff that sounds like someone hitting a bent saw is either prevalent in the moody “Ain’t Got You” or is just a tool of the time we enjoy way too much. Aside from that, more downhearted lyrics set some of the tone. The remaining character takes turns being rambunctious and hard etched, tranquil and unruffled.
   The outcome unfolds into a psychedelic underground rock adventure all collectors of the style seek, and seek excitedly!
