SLIFT - Heavy Road (LEVITATION Sessions)

[@spacegrass6632]

Levitation is the garage-psych side of KEXP in it's true form

Facts

[@Quagmire1771]

After those stick clicks...instant smile on my face!😃When they have them guitars up high, you know they ain't f'n around!

[@BenFreund]

This is f'ing amazing. I can't believe these guys have turned up their intensity even higher. And how cool is that space they are playing in? SLIFT my dudes...please tour the US soon!

[@brunoseramondi1753]

They played in the national center for scientific research in Toulouse (south of France)

[@Fabzil]

They are playing inside what was the first eletronic microscope in the world. It's a sick setting. I hope I'm not burning their secret On June 5th the whole show will be released, this was just a teaser.

[@jackhunt9725]

At 3:40, the drummer stops hitting the ride and the bassist stops hitting the higher notes and the whole song just drops. That ride isn’t rocking in the middle of the mix anymore and you just feel that relief, all that space that I didn’t even realize was being occupied.

[@kjchaifisch]

I feel like it opens up more room for the bass, both the guitar and bass kinda riff back and forth with small fills, all while the drummer maintains that feeling of continuity all the way up to around 6:30. It's open but very concentrated which is pretty rad.

[@ryanburnouf-trow7739]

Levitation utterly CRUSHING IT and being the cause of me having no money, OH SEES, FUZZ, Ty and now SLIFT!

Now all that is left is some Gizz lol

Check out the Acid Dad session. They killed it as well

[@ryanburnouf-trow7739]

The lick from when he approaches the drummer at 2:30 still haunts me at night.

[@Slugfuct]

Holy fuck what a place to jam out, Slift!!!

[@mrbellthebutler]

This Fuzz and OSees what a combination! Excellent work so far Levitation!

[@chrisjacob1446]

now all we need is king gizzard and ORB!

[@mrbellthebutler]

@@chrisjacob1446 that is an excellent suggestion!

I can't be the only one impressed by that camera movement at 3:19

[@Guthio]

Thanks !! 😎

[@ianhamilton2476]

All aboard the next flight to Venus

[@TheSamgopal]

I would say Slift has been the best band on the planet for some time now. I don't fantasize about Klaus Dinger playing with Hawkwind anymore. This is way beyond that :D

[@joeshaughnessy4400]

I love how this is Heavy Road with played like its off Ummon. SLIFT you are incredible!

[@rschmidtzalles]

This band is out of control. Can't wait to see them live.

Venez sur la côte ouest les gars , on va aller surfer sa va être cool! S/o Toulouse

[@jereuter01]

Bass player, I know you have it in you adding some great fills in places that compliment the raging riffage of that killer guitarist. Fantastic!

[@brandobin]

In an interview one of the guys from All Them Witches (think it was the guitarist?) Said this was their favorite new band, can definitely see why

[@georgegolovin6439]

Super insane place for live session with perfect picture

[@SuperBostonCeltics9]

It was only a matter of time!

[@rydermito1854]

Si vous avez l occase de les voir en live ne les ratés pas... Il sont woua... Grandissime

[@aaronhoffenberg371]

To the greatest dudes and dudettes who are absolutely killing it at Levitation, now that the international seal has been broken twice (Boogarins also I think?) can we get a King Gizzard session possibly?! It would be the cherry on top of the most insane year for many reasons, and you guys really helped it suck less. Thank you to everyone at Levitation, all the bands that did sessions, and anyone who supported the bands to encourage more and more sessions!

[@old.chatterhand2000]

Dieses Lied beschreibt hervorragend wie es war, als ich geboren wurde...."Mutter! Ich bin hier...Mutter! Ich bin in dir..." Dieses Lied gefällt mir unglaublich gut. So kompromisslos und wild. Grüße aus dem Land der Stummen

[@brinks667]

I'm half expecting Dr. Frankenstein and his Monster to pop up here haha...Insanely cool setting!
