Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
My silly-faced tribute to the best riff in the world.
The third and final of our Exposed “In Session” videos, filmed by Joe Bream.
Hope you enjoy it!
Second video from our Exposed Magazine shoot. Reblog if you like what you hear!
The second video from my band Gilmore Trail - a bit heavier, especially in the middle!

Gilmore Trail’s first official video! Filmed by Joe Bream, for Exposed Magazine (Sheffield), at 2Fly Studios. Psyched!
The only thing I dislike about Meshuggah is the fact that their name gets used in association with TONS of bands that have NO IDEA what it takes to be the masters. You can’t be Meshuggah. Sit back and bathe in their brilliance and listen to Catch 33 from beginning to end while reading the lyrics.
