...Pelicans early stuff! This album grows on me. It has been in my CD-player more than 10 times, moreover, my Hi-Fi has nearly blown up because of the storms and squalls of rich Pelicans sound and well, it beats hell A lot of reviewers already wrote the cover suits the music perfectly, and I agree with it as well. We can see a very sad picture...

...Pelican sound many of us had become accustomed too. It was an album that was shaped by the band's experience touring and how as they went from city to city, they could see the effects of globalization making the Western world cities (indeed quite possibly more so than the 1st world cities) seem more alike over time. This is obviously, quite a...

...Pelican with this release was to show the world what they were going to do next, and they managed, though overacting a little. I cannot recommend taking this EP as an introduction to the world of Pelican due to its moist, dry, cold and hesitating sound This EP lacks beauty, gracefulness and melancholy (the main future Pelicans traits and...

...Pelican altered their sound al last and Im happy that they did it! To be honest, at the moment I cant say I like their previous works they just seem too heavy and doomy to me. City Of Echoes is completely different album yes, there are a lot of heavy riffs on it, but they are just not as heavy as they used to be; but then Pelican managed to...

...Pelican, already begins to show what I love about this band. They have a truly unique and identifiable sound within the genre, yet I wouldn't call them a strictly post metal band. This particular release is a mix of doom metal, sludge metal and post metal in one and a mix that has certainly been what has made the band unique in their sound to...

...Pelican's third outing in EP form. I love Pelican, don't get me wrong, but this particular release is not quite as interesting as most of the other material they have. The title track, is basically the song Mammoth, but this time reworked as a major key song. Where the original Mammoth crushed and oppressed, Pink Mammoth is an uplifting and a...

Pelicans debut EP introduces the band to the world. Pelicans version of Post Metal is heavy as Neurosis, but much lighter in mood and its much more melodic and instrumental The music is very repetitive and yet melodic, but I dont find it particularly memorable. Sometimes band who play repetitive themes have a plan of why they do this and it can...

...Pelican , the second I mention the word "instrumental" they bow out. I'm hoping some of you have continued reading. Pelican's sound is sometimes ethereal, always heavy. Those who can handle longer instrumental songs will want to pick up the band's opus The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw (my favorite Pelican disc). If you're not...
