SLIFT release single and announce Dublin gig ahead of upcoming album

‘The Day of Execution’ is the latest release from the heavy psychedelic rock trio SLIFT, as they build up anticipation for their upcoming album Fantasia.

Today, the band shared their second single from the album, which is set for release on June 5 and announced a gig at The Academy in Dublin on December 8.

The band say the song is about the effect of time passing on each and every one of us, and about memory loss.

"It portrays the nostalgia that creeps into us as time goes by. Fantasia is such an ancient city that it no longer remembers itself, and this gradually alienates its inhabitants", the band said.

The Dublin gig is just one stop on a staggering 48-date tour across America and Europe this year.

Fantasia is now available for pre-order worldwide here.
