SLIFT, a towering space-rock powerhouse and a relentless live juggernaut, will continue their international tour in 2027, stopping at Gebäude 9, Cologne on March 22nd. The french trio will perform tracks from their new album „Fantasia“, released on June 5, 2026, via Sub Pop.

Every previous album by the radiant and heavy French trio SLIFT—brothers Jean and Rémi Fossat and drummer Canek Flores, a friend since high school – has been a fantasia—a composite of genres and forms that allowed the band to improvise, to jam on themes until they seemed to spiral together into space. But, in a bit of intentional irony, SLIFT’s fourth album is called „Fantasia“ without actually being one. It is, instead, their leanest and most direct record, a pointed saga about overcoming international upheaval delivered by a band bearing down without wasting a second. SLIFT didn’t want to lose the message by playing too much. They’re preparing for a battle they think we can still win.
