pelican are pretentious assholes...they don't even want to be associated with this EP because they feel they "have moved beyond it" or some such art school malarkey.
I worked with Larry at Whole Foods in Chicago... I went to their show at the Fireside, got incredibly drunk, and had a hell of a time... a short time later his other band, Bloody Tusk was playing a "art show" and he handed me this EP... still showing my students this track when they ask what music I like...
One of the best songs I've ever heard. Helped me find calmness in rough times. Loved walking the streets of the city, listening to this on repeat, watching people run around... puts sound to the essence of life.
this was the song that got me into Pelican, i think i heard it some time in 2004. it really hit me hard and i played it over and over. havent felt like that about a song since
The night I got this album, I remember listening to it on the drive home, I took a back route through a miscellany of woods, and I can clearly remember listening to "Mammoth" and "Forecast for Today" with the full moon gleaming down on the road. That alone, made me love this album to death, I don't really think any of pelican's other albums will ever do it for me like this one did, just because of that absolutely surreal experience by itself.
@XxSconeManxX That's a cool story.. Glimmer is the track that did it for me. Especially the outro. I can never get sick of it. I hope they never get a singer, I'd be really disappointed if they did.
hm... how can I explain... that was a joke man, I was trying to have some fun. seems to be useless, actually. you killed me! nevermind, keep uploading good music and loving it! peace.

They were the nicest people when I met them. Plus, they played mammoth as recently as October 4, 2011 in Chicago.

Crying? Who said I was crying? I simply didn't understand why it took so damn long for anyone to comment a song that had around 300+ views.
