yo what! I've seen this name forever but never checked them out because the name seems cumbersome, but your description is everything I like!

yeah my order was missing the splatter Oceanic. I'm saying fuck it, I'll just wait. I've got other records i'm waiting on from like a year ago so what's one more. Unfortunately we're moving so the system is coming down today haha it'll be a bit before i can spin these and see what's up. What took you so long? I'm very intrigued for this back story! Did you somehow just discover them? They are the best albums to start with.

Pelagic told me i wasn't getting the PG.Lost splatter for Yes I Am that i ordered, saying they pressed too little and over sold. Then they sent me 3 separate packages to make up for it. Of the same bundle. Their customer service is very lacking. Does anybody have a 1st press they'd be willing to let go of? I slept on this and it sold out instantly, and A1KA seemingly won't be getting any copies because Pelagic is moving enough of their own via themselves and Indie Merch.

I have copies of the Mondaze demo tape coming, let me know if you want one Managed to get an Italian friend (Francesco from Antigone Records) to buy a few for me, and i got extras for anybody who wants one

Thanks man. Gonna be dealing with the fallout for a while. It jacked up my heart pretty bad, had to wear an MCOT monitor to catch my arrhythmia, and the ataxia (balance issues) and brain fog are fucking wild. It's like you're experiencing your life through a VR headset that's only like, 98% properly calibrated. You know it's real, and you know it's correct, but it still feels wrong. Covid is fucked, man. Absolutely fucked. I haven't worked in 2 and a half weeks. I can't even tell you how fucked up this virus is. Like. I can't. But yeah the Stolen View remaster is fucking ace, and this will be too. A1KA has copies. Get 'em now before they're gone.

christ i thought my music collecting phase was finally starting to subside with post-rock, you guys are killing me here. Slow crush, Mondaze, Parannoul.... ughhhhh fuck.

Leech just did a remaster of "If We Get There One Day..." you guys probably want that. A1kA has copies. A Also you don't want covid. Get your booster. You don't want covid.

yeah I get you. They're special. Kind of like Maybeshewill. Never knew how much I missed them until this came out.

took the plunge because Remedies is sold out too.... i hope i don't get burnt. Got the deluxe 2xLP with the bonus material, whatever it is.

that Mondaze track is fucking awesome. Can't wait to hear the rest. Picking that one up for sure. Also just discovered an old band called Malory last night via a Youtube compilation. Their song "Sleeper" was a joy. So good. Reminded me of Blankenberge in the guitar work. Sadly no full lengths on vinyl at all....

yeah it's everything up through Key haha. Versus and Oscillate are almost a different band, and just not my bag. But everybody seems to flip shit for that stuff...

okay what. You don't like PG.Lost? How? Like, what?

yeah holy fucking shit this new song. way, way too short but my god, if this is the caliber of stuff they're doing now, holy crap.

yeah Parallel Lives didn't hit me the way the debut EP and Bloom did; it was a little more poppy and not so edgy. It's not bad though, and I enjoy it more now.

I can see what you mean with the Ranges stuff. I like it because I like the sound. HOWEVER, you guys really ought to visit the new album, Cardinal Winds. I think it's their best, by far. The production and the songwriting, it just works. I really, really like it. The TNBD album is a grower too; I never have visceral reactions like you guys where I think "omg this sucks" haha. I don't know. I understand the effort put into albums, so I feel like having an emotion like that is... not fair. But that's me. I could never throw shade like that knowing what it takes to put something out. Gathering Half the Deep by PSOTY? And what's with the PG.Lost reference? I'm a bit lost here haha.

Fantastic. I thought these guys were dead. Glad they're not.

if you're after Oceanic I'll probably be ditching my copies because I don't like the remaster of that one.

it was also bad. With Caspian, I figured there was a lower shot of them letting shitty pressings come out. For the most part, they do sound really good. The mastering is well-done, it's just that my copy of Four Trees is fucked. YATC is fine, no better than my OG and I do enjoy the Tertia pressing better than my original.

Just got my shirts and hoodie in the other day! Was super confused why a big poofy bag showed up from some random place in Kansas haha.

I'm noticing this ALLLLL the time on new records. My Dark Operative "The Four Trees" from Caspian is unlistenable because the right channel is all kinds of fucked. It's like the stamper had a rock in it or something. Ripping static all through the entirety of LP1 on both sides. Same thing too: right channel. Anybody grab the 2nd presses? It seems all copies save for the Rough Trade variant have problems with shitty pressings.

That's why i made the post! Dude it's so good, and their pressings are fantastic. It's going to sound fucking incredible on vinyl. You can go take a picture with it next to the location!

I don't want to talk about it.

Out now! Finally! FFO: Isis, Tool, Sleepmakeswaves, Maserati. Tacoma Narrows Bridge Disaster - The World Inside Limited pressing 180g record on red vinyl with black splatter. Scheduled release is August 19th, 2021. CD + LP available from Post Recordings.

Yeah the new album is an absolute banger. They've been supplying my Isis fix for a long time, along with Pet Slimmers. It's selling well, too, so I would pick up your copy before its too late!

Right on, that's not been my conception of them at all haha over the 3 times i've seen them on bills with other bands I've gone to see. When I think Pelican, i just think "riff after riff after riff" with no reverby atmosphere or post-rock elements. Just riffs. I will revisit though!
