Ataraxia/Taraxis

Ataraxia/Taraxis is the long-awaited follow-up to Pelican s sprawling 2009 full-length What We All Come to Need. With members now residing in different cities the EP represents a new chapter in the band s evolution. 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. The carefully crafted track listing boasts a cohesive narrative flow, lending the release of a truly epic feel, worthy of a full album.
