Details of New Pelican Album 2007-01-04 by niobium | 9 Comments | Windy City metalheads Pelican are lining up a brand new album for spring. Titled City of Echoes, the disc was laid to tape at Chicago's Electrical Audio studios with Andrew Schneider (Daughters, Cave In) last month, and mixing is wrapping up even as you read this. Expect the album to hit May 22 via Hydra Head.
In no particular order, song titles include "Bliss in Concrete", "City of Echoes", "Lost in the Headlights", "Winds With Hands", "Dead Between the Walls", "Far from Fields", "Spaceship Broken -- Parts Needed", and "A Delicate Sense of Balance".
In addition, Pelican also plan to tackle the release of the multi-format set After the Ceiling Cracked, which, as previously reported, includes a live DVD shot in London and directed by Muckspreader Productions' Michael Ward (with mixing by Godflesh/Jesu mastermind Justin Broadrick!), plus a three-inch CD and 12" vinyl featuring the previously unreleased "Pink Mammoth" (a major-key version of the band's original "Mammoth", from their 2003 self-titled debut EP) and a remix by Prefuse 73. The collection was initially slated to hit shelves this month, but has been rescheduled for a mid-2007 release due to technical setbacks.
Later this year, Pelican will also swoop into Austin, TX and Tilburg, Holland for the South by Southwest (March 15) and Roadburn (April 21) festivals, respectively. We can also expect U.S., UK, European, and possibly Japanese treks to make their way onto the band's '07 touring agenda in the near future.
Of course, if you simply cannot wait another second for new Pelican (or at least Pelican-related) music, guitarist Trevor de Brauw's hardcore-meets-IDM side project Teith have just issued a new EP, Oak City, on Migration Media.

I am kindasorta looking forward to this. Pelican are one of my least favorite post rock acts.
| | | Can't wait. 
| | | They played a few of these songs when I saw them live. It looks to be quite a solid album. I'm really looking forward to it.
| | | I'm surprised they have a follow up to Thaw so quickly. Also looking forward to that After the Ceiling Cracked thing. Mammoth owns.
| | | Ah, great! I really dig Pelican.
| | | I like what I've heard of Pelican (being Thaw), and this all sounds cool. I'm looking forward to it.
| | | I heard "Thaw" as well and thought it was pretty good, so I might look into getting this.
| | | Cool. This band are interesting so I might like this.
| | | NEW PELICAN OMG OMG OMG
