Pelican Plan New EP / Vinyl Releases

Posted in Records on April 23, 2009

Pelican have been busy firming up their release schedule. Here is what the band had to offer as for upcoming releases:

Our new EP Ephemeral is slated for release on June 6th through Southern Lord. We are doing everything in our power to have advance copies in time for the tour. While Southern Lord is handling the vinyl and mp3 side of the release, the CD version will be self-released by Trevor's own Migration Media label. We're pressing up 1000 copies, all of which will be packaged in custom designed and printed sleeves by our buddies Delicious Design League, the folks responsible for the screenprinted Australasia limited edition that came out, among a million other things they've done for us. The CD will only be available from us on tour for the time being. There will be a special edition of 50 for our Japan show as well, which I forgot to mention. Also be on the lookout for a split 7" with our buddies Young Widows on Temporary Residence, which we'll hopefully get copies of during the course of the tour as well. One new song from each band. We're also still waiting on the Champions of Sound 2x7" on Hydra Head which features exclusive tracks by us, Kayo Dot, Zozobra, and Stove Bredsky.
