Porcelain just shared the a-side from their upcoming 7" “Harmony” b/w “Torch,” out soon via TODO. The vinyl sill release on July 9, just as the band kicks off a tour with Pelican.

“Harmony is a song about loss and how we cope with it," the band says via press release. "You tend to lose people more the older you get, and how we process that grief gets more important each time. Giving the space to reflect on how we feel in those moments is healthy and often gets overlooked."

Formed in 2024, the Austin, TX band released a self-titled album last year (Portrayal of Guilt Records).

Nighttime Stories
Southern Lord (2019)

The passage of time signals many changes; life, death, birth – the cycle continues unabatingly, waiting for the next movement and giving no room for change. For Pelican, the six years since their last record, Forever Becoming, has seen many instances of life, death and birth and the passing of former Tusk member (a project also featuring members of Pelican) … Read more

Forever Becoming
Southern Lord (2013)

It has been about four years since the release of What We All Come to Need, what was in my opinion the only weak moment in Pelican’s career. The Ataraxia/Taraxis EP, released in 2012, gave a first idea of the shape of things to come and now Forever Becoming has finally landed.Pelican was never a band that would stay in … Read more

What We All Come to Need
Southern Lord (2009)

Pelican's new record What We All Come to Need is a gorgeous journey through sludge rock with some moments of beautiful calm. But does it hold your attention enough to be a repeated listen? I got into Pelican when I purchased 2005's The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw. Overall it was a great album, but few songs … Read more
