L.A. progressive psych post rockers ANCESTORS join Pelagic Records!

January 5, 2018
1 min read

Pelagic Records is pleased to welcome Los Angeles’ ANCESTORS to their eclectic roster for the release of their forthcoming new full-length. ANCESTORS’ as-yet-untitled new full-length will see release this Summer. Stay tuned for details. In the meantime, check out new track “Gone,” which was recently issued as part of the latest Pelagic Records compilation MMXVIII at THIS LOCATION. Also, check out our recent End Of The Year feature with pelagic Records HERE.

ANCESTORS manifests mighty, modern music that dovetails innovative arrangement, crushing primordial riff interplay, and melodic instrumental passages with textural atmospherics. The band was forged in 2006. A deal with Tee Pee Records resulted in four critically acclaimed, expansive albums, which incorporated the heaviness of doom metal with the vast dynamics of post-rock, the structural elements of progressive rock, and the fluidity of psychedelic rock.

In the five years that have passed since the band’s last album, In Dreams And Time, they’ve continued to hone their craft in anticipation of their return to stage and wax.

“We’re honored to be joining the Pelagic Records family,” says guitarist/vocalist Justin Maranga. “We’re excited to start the next chapter of ANCESTORS and we believe that Pelagic is the perfect label to partner with on this adventure.”
