Pelican- An Inch Above Sand/Strung Up From The Sky

Have heard lots of good stuff about Chicago-based post-metal act Pelican. Finally gave a listen to their new songs "An Inch Above Sand" and "Strung Up From The Sky" and I'm digging. The latter track will also go along way to silence the critics hating on Larry Herweg's drum skills. If the words "atmospheric" and "heaviness" go as well together in your head as they do in mine, then get at this. Both tracks are off Pelican's new record, What We All Come To Need dropping October 27.
