Double Negative
Low ·2018
"I feel like on each of their records, they have a song that's so good that it seems like you've heard it before. There's just a quality to it that is just really comforting. 'Always Trying to Work It Out.' That's the one on this record, for sure."

Goat
The Jesus Lizard ·1991
"I'll just start with The Jesus Lizard, the 'Goat' record. My favorite record by them. The rhythm section's one of my favorite rhythm sections of a band and it's like classic Steve Albini drum sound."

Live 80/81
This Heat ·1981
"I picked out this This Heat 'Live 80-81' reissue. Sort of like an experimental post-punk band from the UK in the late 70s and early 80s. I'm a big fan of all their studio albums."

LP2
Sunny Day Real Estate ·1995
"Love William Goldsmith. I think his drumming on this record is super innovative and not like anything else. And I think the remaster brought the drums out even more."

In On the Kill Taker
Fugazi ·1993
"It's just such a great album start-to-finish. The energy, the songwriting. That was the first one I bought by them too. It was just such a good introduction to how experimental you can go with punk music."

"I picked up the reissue of 'OK Computer' by Radiohead. This reissue collects all of the b-sides, some of which are as good, if not better than the album tracks. Radiohead is a favorite band of mine and I think of everybody in Pelican, pretty much."

Diamond Eyes
Deftones ·2010
"It's a unique record for them because I think it's when the guitar player got really obsessed with Meshuga, if I have the story right. So he has a drop tune 8-string, I think, guitar so there's just like super, super heavy tones on this album."
