Alcopop! Records are delighted to announce that they have signed Indonesian alt-pop trio Elephant Kind, and will be releasing their forthcoming third studio album, More Time, on 27th March 2026 via all good digital service providers.

Kicking off 2026 with not one, not two, but FOUR huge new tracks just released from the album—along with a stunning live performance video of all four songs—the three piece are dead-set on cementing their artistry and new material in a global spotlight.

The band will be announcing UK headline tour dates later this year.

‘Plan’ and ‘Exactly What I Needed’ were produced by Bam Mastro, while ‘Hooked’ and ‘Strangest Thing’ were co-produced with Iain Berryman (Arcade Fire, Wolf Alice, Beabadoobee, Sam Fender, Young Fathers), engineered by Drew Dungate-Smith at Narcissus Studios in London, mixed by Robert Adam Stevenson (QOTSA, Techincolours, Jeff Beck, KT Tunstall) and mastered by Christian Wright at Abbey Road Studios in London.

The four new releases introduce a more upbeat, dance-music influenced side to the band, with the live video filmed and recorded in their home town of Jakarta. Built on striking lyricism and dynamic production, these four new tracks capture Elephant Kind at their most honest and sonically adventurous, bridging introspection, urgency, and catharsis.

Commenting on the new material, vocalist/guitarist Bam Mastro says: “We’re so happy to finally share our first singles in 6 years that leads into a full album. We’ve released songs here and there over the past few years, but this time we’re holding a complete record we truly believe in, finally on the horizon, ready to be received and heard by the world. More Time is Hip Hop, House, Rock, Eastern, Dance, and more genres we can’t even put into words—a twist and turn of frequencies pulling you from one realm to the next. An innovation.”

Blending genre-bending alternative indie with sharp pop sensibility, Elephant Kind have built a signature sound shaped by their journey from Jakarta to London and beyond. Comprised of Bam Mastro (vocals, guitar), Bayu Adisapoetra (drums), and Kevin Septanto (bass), the band channel years of movement, personal growth, and sonic experimentation into music that feels both borderless and deeply grounded. Their innovative approach has earned them growing critical acclaim at home and internationally, with momentum that continues to build as the band realise their worldwide ambition.

The trio began developing their forthcoming new album More Time throughout 2023 to 2025, a period of significant transformation for the band, who now return with their most personal and expansive record to date. Their third studio album, More Time is a genre-blurring exploration of transformation, longing, and the relentless pursuit of meaning in a world that moves too fast.

Written between the sprawling chaos of Jakarta and the introspective quiet of London, the album marks a pivotal chapter for the band. Creatively self-produced and mixed, More Time stands as a testament to resilience, growth, and unfiltered honesty. It’s the sound of a band shedding their past skins while holding tightly to the lessons they’ve learned along the way.

More Time represents both a departure and a natural evolution for Elephant Kind. It captures a group fully stepping into their identity, unafraid to fuse alt-rock roots with breakbeats and melancholic ballads with dance-floor catharsis.

This is a record that doesn’t simply ask for more time; it demands your full attention.

Live Dates TBA.
