Slift Announce 2024 UK/European Tour Dates Supporting New Album Ilion
Should probably go without saying that this won’t be the last tour French heavy space rockers Slift announce supporting their upcoming label debut for Sub Pop Records, Ilion, or the last region. The record is set to release on Jan. 19, and from the looks of the below and the band’s ethic of hard touring up to this point, it seems likely they’re entering a genuine album cycle. They’ll do these dates in Western Europe and then likely run down a checklist of various other parts of Europe, North America, maybe South America, Australia/New Zealand. Wouldn’t be surprised if they popped up in Japan or Egypt or South Africa. The demand seems to be there, and the trio up to this point have been ready to go just about anywhere they’re asked. They’ve got a long road and a lot of work ahead of them.
The tradeoff, I suppose, is entering the next phase of their tenure as their exit-velocity ascent to the forefront of the international heavy underground has now led to things like listener expectations and the inevitable internet reactionary I-don’t-see-what-the-big-deal-is shrugs and shit-talking. That’s how you know they’re popular. But even my couchlocked ass got to see them this year, so if you haven’t sit tight and I’m sure they’ll get there faster than social media can complain about their not.
Speaking of socials, that’s where this comes from:
Oï !
Thrilled to announce that we’ll be on tour next year, starting with Europe & UK !
There’s some crazy venues, we can’t wait to see ya’ll during this new trip around the sun.
