Sometimes, extremely rarely, the algorithm does something that actually feels like an enrichment of your life. This is one of those times.

[@michaelwhyte1021]

By saying "extremely rarely" you actually say "algorithm doesnt work at all, this is random". But it works. Pretty much well.

[@ZoidbergMustache]

Honestly the algorithm is so effective at feeding us trash (in my experience) that I'm kinda inclined to say that it messed up and let this one slip out. 😄 Whatever led to us getting to hear this I'm grateful for it and I hope it continues to be heard. This album is certainly enriching my life! 🙂

Hey man, that’s us - we are a different band entirely. Chad and his music is amazing, although we had thought we were the only Skelephant until recently! Make sure to direct your love over to his projects. :)

[@ernieoffdaperc]

@@skelephantbandso this isn’t you? I’m confused? Also why don’t you trademark your name or something

[@skelephantband]

⁠Hi @@ernieoffdaperc, no this song isn’t us and we absolutely do not want to wrongfully take any credit for it. There are two bands called Skelephant - one is the project of Chad Vickers (who created People Are Machines) and is on Leaky Basement Records, the other is an unsigned UK rock band responsible for the Ivory EP (that’s us). Hope this clears up any confusion 🙂
