Pigeon Club is a pivotal voice in the Los Angeles indie scene bringing vivid contemplations on abstract ideas to light. His latest release “Ancient History” is a self-aware reverie on getting older riddled with poignant takeaways on loss, the passage of time, and stagnant grief that lingers through the seasons.
“Ancient History” sweeps you away with layered windswept riffs, slow-moving percussion that sticks like molasses, and hollow vocals that search for answers to an ongoing puzzle. Pigeon Club croons, “Have some fun before it’s all done, and we’re all ancient history.” The music video for “Ancient History” combines home movie footage and desolate imagery of roads to nowhere and TV static to represent the sensation of time passing you by. “Ancient History” is a gripping profile on the fleeting nature of being alive ripe with introspective ruminations on what comes next.
“Ancient History” is off Pigeon Club’s upcoming album Another Year In The Minors. Co-produced by John Would and Amy Wood who have worked with greats including Fiona Apple and Warren Zevon, “Ancient History” is powerful turning point for Pigeon Club.
