Yak announce new EP 'Atlas Complex'

After returning earlier this year to deliver their heavily-praised album 'Pursuit of Momentary Happiness', Yak are back once again to announce their plans for a new EP, arriving in the coming months.

The new four-track release 'Atlas Complex' was largely recorded at Jack White's Third Man Records in Nashville, is being previewed by the new lead single 'Am I A Good Man', and is expected to be released on the 1st November via Virgin EMI / Third Man Records.

Speaking about their new release, frontman Oli Burslem said, “‘Atlas Complex’ was recorded between Nashville and South London at the beginning of this summer. The "atlas complex" is centred around an idea of losing all sense of everything. It’s a state of mind in which a person believes that the world is on their shoulders and they're unable to deal with what they perceive as endless problems and uncertainty.”

Have a listen to 'Am I A Good Man' in the player and see the EP's full tracklisting below.

'Atlas Complex' Tracklist:
1. Am I A Good Man
2. Atlas Complex
3. There’s A Turtle In My Soup
4. They Come, They Go
