Slift - Fearless Eye
Slift is a band I just discovered
last week, and have really gotten into. They were formed a few years ago in Toulose, France by Canek Flores, Jean Fossat, and Rémi Fossat. The first song I heard from the band was on a live peformance, in the KEXP studio, and it had a bit of a modern indie sort of vibe, with clean, chorus laden guitars, but that is definitely only a part of what they do. The band also incorporates some super awesome, heavy, psyche-rock sort of riffs, which are reminiscent of early Smashing Pumpkins to me. These two sounds seem quite different, but honestly they really work, and give Slift a unique vibe.
Listen to Fearless Eye by Slift here.
This is the single from the band's
2018 debut full length, La Planète Inexplorée. The year before, they had an EP, and I believe are working on new material now. This song incorporates both the heavy psyche stuff, and the lighter, more modern sounding clean guitar sounds, and is a good introduction to the group. If you like this, I highly recommend checking out the album in its entirety, you will not be disappointed.
