‘Elephant Battle’ er en kort instrumental fra gitaristen, og han sier følgende:
«This is an epic orchestral piece I made to create imagery of two massive elephants battling out in the wilderness. Around the time of its inception, I had watched a documentary about elephants and learned just how amazingly wise and emotional they actually are. My initial idea for the video depicted my original idea of two elephants battling, but my gut was telling me I needed to have some sort of spin on that to keep it a bit more interesting. So, I went the route of showing two humans using elephants to battle, and the twist… the elephants, being as wise as they are, say we’ve had enough and turn on the humans.»
