French heavy psych trio SLIFT have announced Fantasia, their second album for Sub Pop, which will be out June 5. The band produced it themselves Daft Studios in Brussels, and the album was mixed by Kurt Ballou.
The first single from the album is “A Storm With Wings,” a raging ripper that owes a lot to ’70s Detroit and ’90s Seattle and takes aim at corrupt politicians everywhere. Listen below.
