Pelican release feast!

InstruMetal outfit of no little excellence Pelican are to release lots of stuff before the year is out. YEAH.
The band are, according to Pitchfork, to release a twelve-inch, a double LP, a three-inch compact disc and a live DVD. The DVD was mixed by Jesu's Justin Broadrick and features footage of the band performing at The Scala in London.
The double LP is the audio of that very same gig, while the CD features a Prefuse 73 remix. That equals good, in my mind at least. The twelve-inch is the same as the CD, only, y'know, on vinyl. Dope.
All of the above releases are scheduled to be in stores sometime in November. Pelican are to begin working on the follow-up to last year's The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw once they've wrapped up their current US tour.

shame that scala show was a bit wack.
I thought the Scala gig was great
but the crowd were a bunch of cunts, no atmosphere at all!
I just recently pre-ordered the double LP of their last album
On clear/opaque blue marble vinyl.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
well i thought part chimp were fucking incredible
and pelican were a bit dull
hmmm
"well i thought part chimp were fucking incredible
and pelican were a bit dull"
Exactly my sentiments, and I love Pelican. Was pretty disappointed by their show.
it was pretty sterile
maybe this is what makes a good live album?
part chimp were awful!
yeah pelican were dull at this show, but part chimp define the word monotony. the same riff for 20 minutes? fun times!
well maybe I'm just
easier pleased than you lot as I really enjoyed it!!
they dont play the same riff for 20 minutes
and they are fun times

Pelican are THE shit and when I saw them they were fucking awe inspiring!
which makes it all the more bizarre
that theyre releasing a live album of a night that most people i spoke to on the night, and the people who commented my review, and some others here, agree was very dull for them.
it was the most expensive gig i went to last year, but i thought i HAD to see it after a friend told me about how awesome they were at the underworld or the garage or somewhere, and i went, and both me and the friend were massively underwhelmed.

the underworld show was far, far better.
