pitchfork should be capitalised and album is old news probably should just say new track

track rules too

Song rules.

Oh, sweet.

Production is perfect. Loving the bass sound.

not bad

They're also touring in the fall with Coliseum.

This band rules. Can't wait to listen to this!!!!

Never really listened to this band. What's a good place to start?

I started at Australasia and moved from there, but most would say The Fire In Our Throats, so either or..

Can not wait for this album

if you want their heaviest material go with the s/t EP and Australasia

their more mellow and melodic stuff The Fire In Our Throats onwards

no matter what these guys know how to riff

Cool, this should be good.

oh my fucking god, this is so much better than I expected. I have high hopes after the last EP.

God, the sludginess is giving me such a huge Australasia boner.

YEAH NEW PELICAN

I didn't know pelicans were land animals

This is freaking great. Really really great.

Coming from u that actually means a lot

Gonna check now

Is their drummer good yet?

lol he's always been good, being too fucking technical wouldn't suit the songs

I always disliked the drummer and thought the rest of the band was great

I think a little expirementation or technical wizardry on the drums would suit Pelican just fine, but this song is still pretty damn good. Stoked for the new album

I'll have to give this a listen. I wasn't able to get into them in the past but they were some of the first post-metal I tried.

great news. song is awesome

I'm not asking for technical prowess from their drummer, but I recall a song off Australasia where he did the same simple drum fill like, 30 times in a row. It's a shame, because I like everything else about that album.

Damn knew they were in studio, but didn't expect album news so fast. Couldn't get into their past two albums, seemed to venture too much into stale post-rock territory for my tastes. This track, however, has definitely piqued my interests.

~forever becoming~

GOOD...good....

-emperor palpatine

Yay

This band can definitely be pretty sweet but hopefully this album is better than their last 2.

Alright, this is more like it.

Sweeet can't wait for this.

I don't get why people hate the drummer. He fits the band perfectly.

The drums might be my favorite thing about this band.

Their drums always play well off of the riffs, so they never feel out of place and I have always loved
that about Pelican.

That's more important than trying to be so complex that you overshadow other parts on songs or take
away the mood or feel of the song with pointless 'look at me and how good I am at the drums over here
guyz looklooklook'-ing.

band is all about the riffs anyway

The drums on TFIOTWBTT is one of my favorite drumming performances ever, the drums are what make that album to me. Apart from the atmosphere.

Relinquished, I don't know where you heard of this prior to yesterday... Pelican made a big deal of announcing it on their facebook. Could you link me to your news source?

Sweet song.

Yes! Long songs! Well one anyway. Hopefully they get back to the epicness of Australasia and The Fire in our throats... One of my all time favorite bands. Super stoked.

Oh man. The ending slayssss. Love me some Pelican Riffage.

didn't know they were on Southern Lord

since 2009

Song fucking rules. Glad Pelican decided to make a heavy song again

fuckkkin sik

@masbar the songs on ataraxia were pretty frickin heavy in my opinion.

love that album title

this will prolly be awesome

Some of their heaviest material in years. I hope the rest of this album follows suit.

I always disliked the drummer and thought the rest of the band was great

Why, because he's not flashy and does what's needed to get the bands sound across?

Yea he's not flashy but there's nothing wrong with his drumming.
People act like he's drowning puppies or something.

yeah this is great
