IO Album Giveaway: Pelican's "Ataraxia/Taraxis"

Many metal fans (myself included) have enjoyed Pelican‘s post-everything ambient music for the majority of the last decade, and so it has been a tad unfortunate that relocations and changes in their personal lives have kept the band members from releasing a record since 2009’s What We All Come To Need. Finally ready to get their pedals in gear, the band will be releasing the four-song EP Ataraxia/Taraxis next Tuesday, April 10. Created with the help of engineers Sanford Parker (Twilight, Circle of Animals, Nachtmystium) and Aaron Harris (ISIS), the startling soundscape of Pelican is definitely back.

To win your copy of the new EP, tell us about your favorite Pelican album and what makes it so. This contest will end at midnight on Wednesday, April 11th. The winner will be contacted by email. You must have a mailing address in the US or Canada to be eligible to win.
