What I'm Listening To This Week - 06.22

PELICAN Hard rockin atmospheric instrumentals. If Explosions in the Sky is for the night drive home, this band is meant for the long drive out. From City of Echoes:

02. City of Echoes
03. Spaceship Broken-Parts Needed
06. Lost in the Headlights


FAIR TO MIDLAND (Cheers, Hiran) Proggy and sometimes epic. Will appeal to fans of Coheed and Cambria and other bands whose vocals seem on the verge of an hysterical breakdown. From Fables From a Mayfly:

05. April Fools and Eggmen
07. A Wolf Descends Upon the Spanish Sahara
08. Walls of Jericho


FIELDS Layered harmonies over crisp guitars produce accessible guitar pop. Every track on this CD is a gem. From Everything Last Winter:

01. Song for the Fields
02. Charming the Flames
04. School Books
