SLIFT’s ILION is a towering work of rock music, a steamrolling record that starts at the highest peak and never lets up. If that sounds overwhelming, trust that this Toulouse trio have you in good hands. Their third full-length feels massive and oceanic, merging the furious intensity of metal and the wigged-out guitar heroics of psych rock with post-rock’s epic sense of scale. Heavy shit, to be sure—but fear not, because you don’t need much to get what SLIFT are dishing out on ILION. All you need are two ears, an open mind, and the willingness to be truly blown away.

Population II is coming to Trix for an explosive night of psychedelic rock! Expect a powerful sound that navigates between the soul of funk, the freedom of jazz, the raw energy of punk and the dark tones of heavy metal. With their impressive improvisations and refined compositions they know how to surprise and enchant time and again. An evening full of intense rhythms and captivating melodies guaranteed!
