: post by the rev wowed with pelican at 2005-07-25 00:41:10
that's funny.. I tied lair, but the auto correct on my phone must have changed it while I was typing.

pelican: holy shit is all I can say. pelican is awesome. a few years ago, the world of indie rock got super duper over-saturated with spacerock. it seemed like everyone bought a my bloody valentine reissue CD and 3 sonic youth albums. all of them sounded exactly the same. minimal with echoy guitars, slow drum build ups, blend, repeat for 7 minutes and there you have you first CD on some shitty mid-west or canadian label. fast forward through a couple years of hardcore,prog rockm and the furthest reaches of mathrock and you arrive at 1 1/2 years ago when everyone started the newest crazy of "post hardcore" which this year has fused with progrock. anyhow, all that to say that pelican progress past all that by taking the music back to the mid to late 90s where space rock was good and new. they played for an hour almost straight through with very few pauses and almost no sparcely musiced areas. one of the guitarsts used a violin bow on his guitar which sounded cool. they played the first track off their new CD which is the only track by them that I have ever heard. the newest stuff is a lot harder than the older tracks.
