PELICAN
Bandcamp | Facebook | Instagram
A primarily instrumental post-metal act who use extended compositions to explore the texture and timbre of heavy noise, Pelican can be crushingly heavy or ethereal within the same song. Based out of Chicago, the group emerged in 2001 and released their debut album, Australasia, in 2003. They continued to explore the outer reaches of stoner rock, doom, and post-metal on acclaimed subsequent outings like City of Echoes (2007), Forever Becoming (2013), and Nighttime Stories (2019).
BIRDHANDS
Website | Facebook | Spotify
BirdHands is an instrumental 2-piece group featuring drummer Ian Prince (Houston, Porcupine, Story of the Sea, Soul Asylum) and Allen Epley on bass guitar. These sonic tone poems were written entirely through the magic tubes of the internet, sending frequencies back and forth over about 2 years. The result is a record of deep repeating grooves, intricate ride cymbal action, unparalleled kick pedal prowess and absolutely serious 4 stringery that boggles that mind and heats the loins.
