An Elefant Never Forgets is the second album by Australian hip hop band The Herd, released in 2003.

"77%" which featured the line "77% of Aussies are racist", referring to the number of Australians announced in a survey that agreed with the Australian federal government's response to the MV Tampa incident, and also directly attacked the perceived racism of a number of Australian radio talkback hosts, caused a small stir which gained the track more publicity.

77% scored well on the Triple J Hottest 100 of 2003, coming in at #46.

"Burn Down the Parliament", which was to be interpreted metaphorically, but unfortunately was released the same week as the January 2003 Canberra bushfires.
