Guitarists Trevor Shelley de Brauw and Laurent Schroeder-Lebec trade crisp riffs that twirl in opposition before thundering together in monoliths. The more concise pieces trade breadth and rumination for a distinct clarity and a razor’s edge for hook-driven songcraft. With City of Echoes, Pelican defied expectations and set themselves apart from the single-minded thrum of retreading old ground.

Inspired by their non-stop tour schedule following The Fire’s release, the quartet composed City of Echoes to be a lean powerhouse of non-stop melodic hooks and lurching rhythms that reflected the energy of live performance.ġ5 years after the album’s release, Pelican and Thrill Jockey are proud to present City of Echoes in a deluxe 2xLP edition newly remastered by Josh Bonati and featuring a full LP-worth of bonus material, including original album demos, alternate takes, and pieces originally only available on the rare Pink Mammoth EP.

Coming off the heels of the glacial Australasia and their even more expansive and acclaimed follow-up The Fire In Our Throats Beckons The Thaw, their third album is a study in precision.
