Slift Announce Spring 2022 European Tour
Seems like everybody wants a piece of French space boogie overlords Slift. In addition to being previously announced for Desertfest in Berlin and London, Astral Festival in the UK, SonicBlast in Portugal, Hellfest in France Kristonfest in Spain, the three-piece were confirmed just yesterday as artist-in-residence to play three sets at Roadburn 2022, one of which will be their consciousness-igniting/already-influential 2020 album, Ummon (review here), in its entirety. In a couple years, when you start to see a bunch of cosmic-ass-shake groups formed circa now, Slift will have been a big part of the reason why.
More so as they take to the streets next year, in Europe and apparently the US as well. All this makes me wonder who’s putting out their next record, but I suppose that’s a question for another press release at another time. Likewise the US tour, which is still to be announced — smart, considering plague and all that — but the list of EU/UK dates is substantial and admirably ambitious. Get yourself freaked out in the universe.
List from social media:
Oï !
Thrilled to announce that we’ll be on tour in EU and US in 2022 !
We’ll play Ummon, as well as new material.
