Don't miss SLIFT's Levitation Session 2LP, order here.

With their second full-length album, French psych rockers Slift set a new standard for space rock. Fusing spaced-out krautrock jams with heavy, riff-intensive garage rock, Ummon barrels across the stars of sound propelled by fuzzy flames, and it doesn’t stop. Over an hour of journey through the cosmos, Slift leaves few galaxies, nebulae, black holes, etc. untouched. For starters, the sound is amazing. The guitar tones are crunchy and full of buzz, and in the songs, the players just wig out and let the guitars sing in glorious, heady reverberation.
