Brew presents:

Monday 9th April 2012 - Brudenell Social Club, Leeds

PELICAN

It seems fitting, upon listening to Pelican's music, that the band hails from Chicago. When Tortoise and their contemporaries ushered in a new wave of instrumental music over a decade ago it was a pastiche of genre-defying sound, simultaneously cohesive and expansive in influence. Similarly, Pelican's songs touch on so much from the canon of rock music. Never content to remain static over the course of their almost decade long career, 2009 finds Pelican has shifted gears once again. This year sees them on a new label, Southern Lord — a label helmed by Greg Anderson, whose own axe conjurations in SUNN, Goatsnake and Engine Kid have long been admired by the Pelican camp – and presenting a new full length. What We All Come To Need is Pelican through and through and the apex of their creative aspirations. It is the album that straddles most confidently the fine line between adherence to roots and the mining of the unexplored.

BLACKLISTERS

Formed in 2008 the band have steadily built up a strong following having toured around the country with the likes of Kong and Pulled Apart By Horses and playing both Leeds & Reading festival in 2011. They release their debut album via the UK’s finest noisy powerhouse record label Brew, due for release on April 24th 2012 . Recorded by Ross Halden of Ghost Town studios (Rolo Tomassi, Castrovalva, Hawk Eyes) and loaded with the singles “Trick Fuck”, “Swords” & “I Can Confirm” it promises to be an uncompromising piece of work that will surely stir up some much needed adrenaline into the world of modern guitar music.
