The Black Magic Show by Elefant
The Black Magic Show is an album by Elefant, released in 2006. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 2 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Lolita”, on 2 lists with a best position of #85.
The Black Magic Show was Elefant's second album, and it turned out to be their last. Following Sunlight Makes Me Paranoid, the American indie rock band went for the moody, glamorous end of the post-punk revival, all taut rhythms and after-dark atmosphere. The third track, "Lolita", takes its cue loosely from Vladimir Nabokov's novel of the same name, a dark literary thread running through a record built to move. It climbed to #14 on Billboard's Top Heatseekers chart.
