For those of your interested in such things… like me… this sounds like a match made in heaven.
Chicago heavy-rock instrumental icons Pelican have announced that they’ve signed to Southern Lord records, home to Earth, Boris and and Sunn 0))).
Pelican are currently at Red Room studios in Seattle, recording an EP that will be their first release on Southern Lord. The new material promises to be heavier, darker and very “riff-oriented” comments guitarist Trevor De Brauw. A very special guest guitarist who has been heavily influential to the band will be making a guest appearance… more details to be revealed shortly!
In March Pelican will be touring alongside new label mates Wolves In The Throne Room in the US including a return to the South By South West music fest in Austin, TX at the Southern Lord showcase. Upon returning home Pelican will focus their sights on their fourth full-length album. Fingers crossed for a UK tour!!!

These guys rock – I’ve seen oncec last year here in Colorado Springs. For those of you that like post-rock with a heavier hand, these guys are the shite!
I’m really annoyed I’ve not seen Pelican live… perhaps when they come over next I’ll rectify that…
