A rewatching of the classic 1981 'Clash Of The Titans' set Johni Holiday’s brain gears into motion, somewhere during a delirious recovery state. Basically, we all know the story of the gorgon Medusa, and how she was slain at the hands of Perseus. In this version of the story, the tables have turned, and Perseus (the speaker) finds himself head over heels in-love with Medusa, and fairly close to worshipping her, singing about admiring her 'serpentine locks of hair' and 'emerald eyes set to stun'. Of course, Johni also delves into biblical references when he asks the serpentine woman to build him 'a church from my ribs' so he can sing her hymns every day.

It's about admiring a woman for her fierce attitude and way of life. She has no care about the speaker and has no need to care about him. The story revolves around his maniacal worship of her, and her indifference to his existence.” – comments Johni

If you’ve been wanting to get your hands on an Elektrik Ram vinyl - here’s your chance. Watch the lyric video for 'Queen Of The Gorgons' and as you will notice, it’s full of Easter eggs. Whoever finds all the Easter eggs first wins a copy of Elektrik Ram and a one-of-a-kind, never to be printed again t-shirt.

Rules:

  1. Take screenshots of all the Easter eggs you find.
  2. Post them as a story, reel or a regular post in order, and remember to tag the band.

About Ruff Majik

Ruff Majik was born in a small town in the middle of nowhere. In this small town, three friends found mutual ground in their love for epic riffs, fantasy and booze. They decided to take on the void, fill it with fuzz, and climb their way out of obscurity. Joining forces with new members to turn a once 3 piece into a 5 piece stoner rock juggernaut.
Fast-forward a few years and here we are - European tours have been played, festivals have been attended, and boy howdy - parties have been had. 
 So come catch a show. Smoke spliff, obey the riff, and sing along to some melancholy songs.
