History

The band was formed in Athens, Georgia in 1998. Founding members include Howard Hudson, Clay Jordan, and Lucas Jensen. Their first full-length record was released on WARM Recordings in 2002, and was produced by Andy LeMaster.
After a national tour, and nearly universal acclaim for their debut record, the initial formation of the band dissolved. Jordan relocated to Portland and enlisted the help of Mike Erwin, Kevin Davis, Jesse Robert W., and Matt Kline. Shortly after the Portland lineup was solidified, WARM released a 4-song EP featuring three unreleased tracks and an Eluvium remix of L.A.P.D. vs N.Y.P.D.
In February 2008, the band released their second full-length LP, titled Longplay 2. The record features vocals by Carolyn Berk and the artwork of Chris A'lurede. It was recorded by Adam Selzer and Jason Powers at Type Foundry Studios in Portland. It was mixed by Jeff Stuart Saltzman and mastered by Roger Seibel.
The pacificUV song "Alarmist" was featured in the 2009 season-finale of the Showtime drama Californication.
In 2011 pacificUV released the EP "Chrysalis," their first release on Athens, Georgia-based label Mazarine Records.
In 2012 pacificUV released "Weekends," their third studio LP and second release on Mazarine Records.
