Elephant Eyelash is the first studio album by American band Why?. It was released by Anticon on September 26, 2005.[8] Prior to the formation of the band in 2004, Yoni Wolf had used "Why?" as his stage name for his solo work.
The title refers to an erection.[9] Why? said: "An 'elephant eyelash' is a hard-on. I like to make my own pantheon of slang. Isn't having a hard-on kind of vulnerable? It's an anticipation."[9]
