Our Take

PELICAN's latest offering, Ataraxia/Taraxis, is a sonic rollercoaster that will have you reaching for your seatbelt and hanging on for dear life. This four-track EP serves as a reminder of the band's powerful instrumental prowess and ability to transport listeners to a realm where language is obsolete and only pure, unadulterated emotion reigns supreme.

The opening track, "Ataraxia," sets the tone with its heavy, sludgy riffs that hit you like a ton of bricks. The band effortlessly weaves intricate melodies and crushing rhythms to create a sonic landscape that is both haunting and hypnotic. It's a track that demands your attention and refuses to let go.

"Lathe Biosas” takes a different turn, with its shimmering guitars and hypnotic rhythms drawing you into a trance-like state. The band showcases their versatility here, seamlessly transitioning from crushing heaviness to ethereal beauty in a matter of minutes.

"Parasite Colony" ups the ante with its relentless energy and ferocious intensity. The band's precision and control are on full display here, as they effortlessly navigate through complex arrangements and blistering solos with the finesse of seasoned veterans.

Closing track "Taraxis" brings the EP to a satisfying conclusion, leaving listeners breathless and wanting more. PELICAN have once again proven why they are masters of their craft, delivering an EP that is as captivating as it is exhilarating. Ataraxia/Taraxis is a testament to the band's unwavering dedication to their art, and a reminder of the power of instrumental music to transcend language and connect on a deeper, more primal level.
