my seats for the chicago stop of the ill communication tour were so far from the stage it was impossible to discern what the hell was happening on stage. the people around me had fucking binoculars and shit.

"As post-rock benchmark albums go, this one is going to be in the top ten of all time easily, it’s slick, emotive, and leaves you feeling better every single time you listen to it." 😮

cannot understate how great it was to finally play London again

"Flickering Resonance stands as yet another pristine display of the band’s gift for shaping instrumental movements that defy rigid structure while achieving a remarkably cohesive form." Thanks @louderthanwar.bsky.social! louderthanwar.com/pelican-flic...

BREAKING NEWS: we're updated our weekly playlist to feat latest or just greatest jams from @uniform-nyc.bsky.social, @soundgardenmusic.bsky.social, Ready For Death, Hotline TNT, Sympos, Darkthrone Greet Death, and (per usual) loads more not on this site open.spotify.com/playlist/5CU...

We’ve updated our Spotify playlist to soundtrack the dismal end of humanity we’ve been steered into, now featuring Brutal Truth, Geto Boys, Gene Clark, and loads of others who don’t seem to have bluesky accounts. Enjoy! open.spotify.com/playlist/5CU...

“Listened front to back, the album feels like falling, eternally, into an ocean of celestial energy.” 🙏

There's a part of me that wonders what the perception of the album would've been if we'd gone with @chearthur.bsky.social's suggested title TALES OF THE BLADE

“You can’t help but wonder what other music is being written in 2025 with this level of observation, consideration and attention. I can’t think of any.” punyhuman.substack.com/p/pelican-fl...

Soundtracking the function tonight? We’ve just updated our playlist- new additions include @planningforburial.bsky.social , @lowtheband.bsky.social, @jayejayle.bsky.social, Clutch, The Tubs, The Make Up, Suffocation, Deadguy, and many more open.spotify.com/playlist/5CU...

"Pelican just want to play their riffs and make people feel good. If that doesn’t fit your definition of 'metal,' then call the music whatever you like. It’ll still feel good." #postemostonerdeathgaze

"If you have found yourself in need of solace living on planet Earth in 2025 — whatever that might mean to you — Pelican‘s exuded joy for playing these songs together can be something to hold onto." ❤️

I’m not trying to tell anyone what to do but there are less than 30 tickets left for our show with Porcelain at DC9 this July. dc9.club/event/pelican/

20 years ago today we released our sophomore album The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw. In commemoration of the anniversary we’ve made the deluxe version on @thrilljockey.bsky.social Pay What You Want on our Bandcamp page for the day. pelican.bandcamp.com/album/the-fi...

this album has been a most pleasant surprise & a f’n beast! so stoked the OG @pelicansong.bsky.social is back together again 💜💛

"A triumphant return from its creators, Flickering Resonance succeeds because it feels so natural, as though you’re sitting in Pelican’s rehearsal room listening to the most intuitive and engrossing jam session you’ve ever heard." Thanks @floodmagazine.bsky.social floodmagazine.com/195776/pelic...

Y'ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING W/ BATED BREATH - THE PLCN PLAYLIST IS FULLY REVAMPED now feat Envy, Nirvana, READY FOR DEATH, Black Sabbath, @chapterhouse.bsky.social, The Discussion, @smashingpumpkins.bsky.social, and more open.spotify.com/playlist/5CU...

much to love to Scott for helping us get this album how we needed it to sound - we know it wasn't easy. Sanford Parker recording and Scott mixing was a fucking dream team.

thank you @knotfestofficial.bsky.social "A sub-genre, songwriting masterclass... Partnering with @rfcrecords.bsky.social also seems to have given the band a new sense of vigor - and with an album of this quality, fans old and new are sure to be satisfied." knotfest.com/blogs/news/n...

More thoughts to come, but for now... it's here: pelicansong.lnk.to/flickeringre...

"If this year has taught me anything, it is the importance of keeping a light burning bright in the darkness. May Flickering Resonance be that source of brightness for you as well."

“Once again at their transcendental best, Flickering Resonance sparkles with cadence and roars with menace in what is one of Pelican’s most defining statements.” 🥹

"Flickering Resonance is a record that’s always stridently pushing forwards, powerfully and positively, while capturing its authors continuing to operate at the peak of their powers" www.kerrang.com/album-review...
