Strangely though the Song 'Ataraxia' from one of their EPs is probably my favourite song from the band, incredibly evocative.
I love every release from Pelican because they each have their own tone and mood. Their earlier stuff is way more drawn out but also bone-crushingly heavy; the song "Drought" from Australasia is one that I really enjoy and has been one of my favorite since they released it. I like the stuff from The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw and City of Echoes because it's a little spacy but still heavy, but more complex. Their stuff from their last two albums is awesome too; What We All Come to Need is more focused and the songs are shorter (boo!) but some of those songs are just so... heavy. Their new album is impressive and as a matter of fact, I'm listening to it right now at work.

Cut loose Agents of Shield and make a damn Doctor Horrible's Sing Along Blog sequel already! Nathan Fillion's been camped outside Josh Whedon's house for the past year pressuring him for the return of Captain Hammer.

The prefect example of someone missing the point.
Do not underestimate the Squats. They survived for millenia cut off from the Imperium and assailed on all sides. Their determination and resilience is an example to us all.

Its just a shame that they couldn't fight off Andy Chambers.

Ok, so the guy's dancing is fairly outlandish, but I find his performance impossibly compelling. He's so intense. He performs the gak out of that song, as if his life depends on it. Maybe it does.
Love them or hate them, I predict that you won't able to ignore Future Islands in months and years to come. The man's a star. Great song too, very emotive.

Rewatched This is England recently. For some reason I kind of think its soundtrack would fit in with a post apocalyptic Britain quite well, or maybe the 80's were just that crap. =P
Right now I'm listening to my phone because youtube is blocked at work... But my playlist is: In Extremo, Rammstein, Eisbrecher, Megahertz, Rob Zombie, Seven Dust, Korn, ACDC, Def Leopard and Rolling Stones just to name a few of my weird collection on music.
Gets a few looks when you go from Rammstein Buck Dich to Rolling Stones Beast of Burden.
