Elder - Halcyon (Live Session)

WATCH THE FULL VIDEO HERE: • Elder Omens Live Sessi...
---
In April 2021 we "celebrated" the one-year anniversary of Omens - an album we never had a chance to play live yet. We decided to film a short live set to celebrate that anniversary and also give fans a chance to 'preview' the material live.
Recorded between Germany and Massachusetts (where band members reside), the session was mixed by Richard Behrens at Big Snuff Studio in Berlin. Liquid light visuals and editing magic by Palantir Visuals.
Thanks to Zukunft am Ostkreuz for making the filming of this possible.

I think the world deserves Elder on KEXP. What a gift that would be.

and then put that live version on spotify

Please yes!

I agree

A REAL BANGER OF THIS AGE

[@churchofgenerals4761]

Sometimes I go down to the beach near my house at sunset . listen to music .drink some beer, light a fire and at some point between twilight and dusk this song comes on and I am right with the world

[@alexbone98]

My less glamorous equivalent is sitting on my fourth floor balcony, cigar in hand and a killer sunset meandering between the downtown apartments.

You have way with words unknown to most. How did you learn all these words?

[@anythinganytimealways]

​@@randominternetuser2They're all equivalently generic English words

Lucky man

[@jcisternas]

Thank you Elder! In 2020 a great old friend of me committed suicide and left me devastated, depressed and thoughtful. She was the only person I knew who was so passionate about Elder, she sang beautifully and was able to spectacularly play dead roots and lore songs on drums. Many times she talked about how great it would be to see Elder live, and now she is gone, but rediscovering Omens has been a way to ease the pain.

[@Schuli]

I feel sry for you Bro. I hope you will see elder live and in you heart she is with you!

[@UnclePhillyMyAss]

Hope you are doing ok x

[@hiroprotagonist921]

I hope you've been able to find some measure of peace over the passage of time.

[@goroachi]

Very shocking to read these sad lines bro....very sorry for your loss...😢😢

[@ingojutzewitz4925]

sorry for Your loss 🙏 i hope You learn to life with these Scare and wear it with pride. because You knew her and as long as she is in Your Heart, she is not Dead. I hope, no, i wish for You that You will be able to catch ELDER live. Life for this. ❤

[@Jao_Xiden20]

Elder is the best

[@johnpeniell9709]

These guys are phenomenal!

[@czar666]

Elder are totally awesome and became one of my alltime-favourite bands over the last few years. Saw them live recently and it was the most beautiful experience ever… 🥹🙏🤘🪐👽✨🤩

[@wendyyvonne]

@@czar666I too recently saw them live. They are on a whole other level. Totally awesome and trippy! Their music transports you to another dimension! They beyond rock!

[@czar666]

@@wendyyvonne yeah, I‘m glad for you that you had the opportunity, too. I think their show was amazing! Where did you see them? I saw them in Bremen/Germany in a fairly small club. Maybe 200 people… Have a good one 🤘🏻🤘🤘🏾🤘🏿👽✨

[@ryanmustain6545]

I am so intrigued about where they are goIng as a band. Their abilities as songwriters is unmatched.

[@whatdothlife4660]

They're alright. It's simple and generic stoner rock, certainly not "unmatched."

[@tololo16]

I mean, if the last three minutes have lasted 10 more minutes, I would have still say that it wasn't long enough. This last part is magnificent.

[@christianhoffmann9061]

I lack the words to describe how those minutes feel...

[@j0h4nvk]

Totally agree!

[@mxx720]

Elder could make a whole EP with songs based around riffs from the last 1-2 minutes of several of their songs. Lore, Sanctuary, Halcyon, and a few others build up to amazing final sequences, and then fade out after a minute. I love what they do, but sometimes I just want more of THAT.

[@ingojutzewitz4925]

🙏

[@Tnjay55566]

Too good

[@caverndeep]

I was worried this song wouldn't be as good live as on the record. Lets just say that my worries have been relived.

[@thatsjohnnyt6480]

Relieved?

[@Vanalos]

Elder live is really great. I'd recommend to try to see them if possible.

[@armata6530]

Seen them live in 2022 and 2023. Both tours they played this song and it absolutely crushes.

[@deanseabrooksswearjar2011]

This Band has become the stuff of mythical legendary status! This tripped out clip of Halcyon and the album Omens, is the beast I hoped that someone, someday could possibly rival The Mars Volta’s “ De-Loused in the Comatorium”! Which I regarded as My greatest album of all time! Especially with the story Cedric made to go with it! But Elder can take music to all those wonderful heights you always Dream of! At the 11.25 min mark of this clip of Halcyon, the Band go to a place that’s other worldly! Into the heavens! That riff man! And all those accompanying fills that follow, and Nicks epic gun barrel soloing, make me Want to just listen to that over and over for days! And it’s soooo friggin amazing to hear all the wonderful comments below, also stating how mind blowing that ending is! Great minds think alike! Say No more! And those visuals! Like Wow! Wipeout! All I can say, is pretty please, come to Melbourne Australia! You guys are some of the most incredible musicians I’ve seen in a long, long time! Thank you soooooo much! Dean from Williamstown, Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺

[@zackkorth2410]

frances the mute is the best album of all time, but deloused is still legendary.

[@jackupastrana]

jesus christ that ending was fuuuucking awesome!

[@poigmhahon]

My Halcyon Days were with my sweet departed...unbelievable, here I am now...why & how...much love.

This song was an epic finale on the Desertfest Berlin last weekend! The song and the whole gig sent me on a trip, i was high on music. Especially the surround-ish sound of the last part embraced my soul deeply that day. Truly magnificent, thank you for that experience! ♥

[@magusmaximmus2172]

I used to not like Elder, I just didn’t get them. Then in 2020 they released Omens. I was hooked. Could not stop playing that album. Granted, I had seen them live numerous times prior to that release but still didn’t click until Omens. Needless to say, I can’t get enough of these gentlemen.

[@janphy5355]

❤ Best among the bests
