LITTLE ANTICHRIST - songs stark in their honesty yet intricate and bewitching in their narrative. Grappling with triumph, world-ending fire, loss, power play between the sexes and frozen dessert, all the while pulling you deeper into a world of emotional understanding that so often go hidden.

​

Elvis’ songs echo the innocence of childhood, teenage disillusionment and adult enlightenment - all joining the conversation and having their opinion heard, while helping shape our understanding of his world. The brooding shanty, “Jesus For a Day” realises how shallow our thoughts can be when we only look out for ourselves. “Orlando” remorses in the corner and aches about a love lost, until we get our “Carrie” moment where we levitate and cry “You bleed like a criminal/and lie like a saint”. The delicate yet ominous “Cheesecake” may just be the perfect point zero for understanding Elvis Arthur. His name is new but he has already been carefully looking for ways to playfully push you over the edge into deep retrospection, where you will sing along all the way down.

 

Little Antichrist captures the wanderings of an emotional mind on overdrive.
