Following the release of their well received debut album, U.S. Songs, and multiple subsequent tours, Elliott have released their sophomore LP, False Cathedrals. Recorded in January 2000 at Grandmaster Recorders and Rondor Studios in Los Angeles with producer Tobias Miller (who has worked on albums by The Wallflowers, Fiona Apple, Korn), the twelve track opus contains melodic, ambient pop with Elliott's aggressive rock sound still present. The album moves from softer toned, rock-pop ballads like "Shallow Like Your Breath" and "Blessed By Your Own Ghost", to radiant songs like "Drive On To Me" to frantic, power-driven tracks like "Dying Midwestern". The album explores a wide range of dynamics, incorporating electronic drum beats and other programmed sounds and choral vocals along side traditional rock instruments. False Cathedrals transcends genres and shows the band at their best.
