I remember liking the old stuff with that other guitarist as well, but i like your current sounds even more. (I listened to your play list a few times) Your new band kinda reminds me of "Enablers", (not to try and label your essence ) which for my tastes, is a beautiful thing.

I remember seeing them live with a friend that plays the drums quite frequently; between Pelican and Tombs he was looking at me like "Wtf have you gotten me into...". Honestly though, i prefer the sluggy sloppiness of Bryan than the sloppiness of most Black Metal drummers that just hammer on with no expressions of dynamic grace.

 

1. just realized that Part the Second jumed to #34 in the top 100, which f***ing awesome and...

2. I wanted to bump this thread back to the first page

An Inch Above Sand is from the Pelican/Young Widows split.

Hey, it's an OPINION.  Not fact.  hence, not debatable or worthy of taking offense over.  I find Pelican boring and derivative.  sue me.  What's with the "outsider" comment?  is that because I have NOT been duped by the musical atrocity that is Pelican?  Sorry, I don't believe in belonging to retarded cults.

also, I think it is beyond ironic that your poster name is Dim.  as in, what you are mentally....
just kidding.  I'm not mad.  but there is no need to get pushy about someone else's opinion.  What you are surprised that someone does not worship a band that you may?  I find that common place bands such as Pelican are just boring.  heavy pop hogwash.  no surprises.  no novelty.  been done thousands of times before, and much better.  I don't need a ton of versions of the same thing with a new package.  I want the best; which Pelican is not.

there's no reason for anybody on either side to get worked up over opinions. 

If you like Pelican, prog out with your log out.... more power to ya.  enjoy them.
I simply don't.  No reason to chastise me.... jeez maybe I should just refrain from stating opinions that are in opposition to any popular opinions.  Sorry.  I'm out on a limb apparently.  Far from popularity and pop (as it were).

thank you, thank you.  I appreciate the recognition.  I guess the lesson here is that you can't f**k with nature, let alone an avalanche....
