Description

The Seven Seas – Elephant Stone

By: Suhrid Manchanda 

Montreal-based, ethnically Indian multi-instrumentalist Rishi Dhir left his mod rock/power pop outfit The High Dials to
concentrate on the sitar and his own catalog of compositions. This subsequently led to Elephant Stone, and the
band’s debut record The Seven Seas. With that background, I was excited at the prospect of a full album of blazing
raga-rock, totally psychedelic and tripped out, hopefully over a solid foundation of sing-along enabling anthemic
tunage. Indeed, Elephant Stone borrows its name from the stoner rock of Stone Roses.



Unfortunately, straight off the boat, album opener ‘Bombs Bomb Away’ makes clear that the guitar and the
sitar shan’t be making sweet love together on equal terms here. The first three songs are actually void of Indian
intonations, breezing through territory crowded by timeless hits and perennial classics. Heartland rock by Tom Petty,
British arena rock a la Manic Street Preachers, and jangly classic rock like the Blue Oyster Cult are some of the
reference points that come to mind. Among the five anti-sitar tracks on the album ‘Oh, Heartbreaker’ is the
only true winner, mostly because it closely resembles songs by the Magnetic Fields, who do a far wittier job of
recreating classics.



It’s only when the sitar kicks in on the title track ‘The Seven Seas’ that there’s an immediate,
jubilant recognition: “Ah, here we go, this is what we were waiting for.” The sitar takes the lead role,
with sexy results. Lyrics referencing the Himalayas and the Gandharvas drive home the eastern vibe. Whereas ‘The
Seven Seas’ is really a straightforward pop tune with the delightful texture of ‘Norwegian Wood’,
‘The Straight Line’ that follows it is a blazing seven minute funkadelic instrumental, a cross-germination
of Kula Shaker’s ‘Govinda’ hit and psyched out improv soundtrackers Shalabi Effect, also of Montreal.
The album closes with the only two other sitar-powered tracks, ‘A Morning Song’, for post-acid trip staring
at the sun, and ‘Don’t You Know’, the album’s only other 7-minute raga funk fest, quite
reminiscent of Led Zeppelin’s ‘Kashmir’.



Rock has always fetishized raga, which is in many ways, the original rock. Considering the similarities between some
classical Indian scales and the Western pentatonic that forms the basis of most rock and pop, it’s somewhat
disappointing that more Indians haven’t been able to push the fusion further. Although initially disappointing
however, this debut album is a grower, with melodies conducive to soundtracking special summertime moments, in India and
elsewhere.
