Hey folks,
Pelican have just finished recording their new full length entitled "The Fire In Our Throats Beckons the Thaw". Here is what the band had to say about the recording:
"Countless pizza and Thai orders, incredible amounts of analog tape, enough farts to power a small town, an endless drivel of childish jokes and hours of guitar noodling ... the new Pelican full length is now complete. It was recorded in February with Greg Norman, the "other engineer" at Electrical Audio in Chicago (electrical.com). Electrical Audio is the shiznit for analog recording, and it has hosted High on Fire, Neurosis, Low, and the Ex, among many others.
The album is tentatively (read: most likely) titled "The fire in our throats beckons the thaw." It is an hour long and comprises the following tracks: "Last Day of Winter," "Autumn Into Summer," "March to the Sea," "Red Ran Amber," "Aurora Borealis," "Sirius" and an untitled acoustic song. The follow-up to late 2003's Australasia, Pelican feels this album is an accurate aural depiction of their current creative ideas. Tentative release date is late June. The band then has plans to immediately tour Japan and canvas the U.S. with other Hydra Head bands. "
For those of you who are not aware, April will see the release of Pelican's "March into the Sea" cdep. The ep contains an expanded, 20 minute long version of the track "March into the Sea" (the version that will be on the full length is 10 minutes) and also features a version of "Angel Tears" remixed by Justin Broadrick. That's all for now, take care.
