August 25, 2009, 15 years ago
Chicago-based experimental metallers PELICAN have posted a new track from their upcoming album at their official MySpace page.
The song, entitled 'Strung Up From The Sky', is one of the eight tracks encompassing the band's upcoming full-length, What We All Come To Need, being released on October 27th, their first for Southern Lord Recordings.
Pelican guitarist Laurent Lebec has dubbed the new album “the most perfect synthesis of everything we've done to date, sonically.”,
The album features more guests than have ever appeared on a Pelican album before: Greg Anderson of SUNN O))), Aaron Turner of ISIS, Ben Verellen of HARKONEN and Helms Alee and Allen Epley from THE LIFE AND TIMES & SHINER.
Content-wise, Lebec says, “there is a current of inspiration that feels particular to each album's music and titles. Though we lack a singer, the song names are often conceptual. This new album speaks to a rapidly decaying world, the fulfillment we find in each other, as well as the resolve to move beyond disillusionment.”
Tracklisting for What We All Come To Need is as follows: 'Glimmer', 'The Creeper', 'Ephemeral', 'Specks Of Light', 'Strung Up From The Sky', 'An Inch Above Sand', 'What We All Come To Need', 'Final Breath'.
Further details to follow.
