The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw (2005)
Album
Released
Chicago instrumental band Pelican drop vocals entirely and let guitars tell the story. Post-rock warmth meets heavy sludge riffs, and Autumn into Summer unfurls with an almost cinematic sweep. Choose it if vocals are what put you off heavier music: the release here comes purely from the riffs and dynamics.
