PELICAN Contest: Make Your Own Music Video & Win A Limited 10xLP Box Set

PELICAN and Prefix Mag have posted a contest where fans can film their own video for the band and win a limited edition 10xLP box set from the band! Check out the new track and the details on the contest, and sign up RIGHT HERE.

The long awaited follow-up to PELICAN’s sprawling 2009 full length What We All Come To Need, the new four song EP Ataraxia/Taraxis, is set to be released via Southern Lord on April 10. With members now residing in separate cities, the EP represents a new chapter in the band’s evolution with a reenergized focus on composition and the utilization of the recording studio as a creative tool in the songwriting process, yielding one of the most diverse efforts in the band’s prolific discography.

The four new songs highlight the manifold sonic strengths of the band by delving into moments of triumphant melodic rock, smokey doom, ambient soundscape, acoustic desert-folk, and minimalist electronics. In contrast to the EP’s origin as the product of four different recording studios, including stints with engineers Sanford Parker (Twilight, Circle of Animals, Nachtmystium) and Aaron Harris (ISIS), the carefully crafted track listing boasts a cohesive narrative flow, lending the release an epic feel worthy of a full album.
