God's Revolver Brings Plenty of Groovenew

Little Black Horse plays out like a commissioned soundtrack to the Preacher graphic novel series: dusty, drunk on its own channeled misanthropy, and probably very offensive to Republicans.

'EuroGroove' is the Perfect Way to Get Your 'Euro Groove' Onnew

All in all, you can't go wrong with a little diversity.

'En Este Momento' is Very Smoky Indeednew

Cordero's vocals struggle to match the intensity of the songs. Her vocals seem strong on some, yet, weak and whiny on others.

Keith Marks Keeps Funky Flute Playing Alivenew

Keith Marks is a very accomplished flautist in his own right. His playing reminds me of a Lalo Schifrin movie soundtrack or Chris Wood, who played with Steve Winwood and Dave Mason of the band Traffic.

This DVD is for True Pelican Fansnew

Evolution is the whole point of After the Ceiling Cracked, and the foundation upon which Pelican's very existence is based. The impact is considerable, especially when you realize that seeing the band live is an extension of this whole experience.
