What We All Come To Need
Never content to remain stagnant 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, and presenting a brand 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. Recorded with Chris Common, who has helmed records for a variety of bands, from Minus The Bear to These Arms Are Snakes, "What We All Come To Need" is as punishing as it is calming. This is Pelican at their most inspired and sonically adept, delivering 50 minutes of weighty riffs and textured progressions in momentous succession. This isn t maturation as much as it is confidence and purpose, and the latter are stamped on every note. Greg Anderson (sunnO)))), Aaron Turner (ISIS), Allen Epley (Shiner, Life And Times), as well as Ben Verellen (Helms Alee) guested, lending the record organic diversity
