Album Notes & Community Reviews

SLIFT's monumental sophomore album is an epic science-fiction odyssey, told through sprawling, high-octane heavy psych. 'Ummon' dramatically amps up the intensity and progressive complexity of their sound, fusing colossal stoner rock riffs and acid-drenched guitars with the relentless propulsion of space rock. It's a dense, atmospheric, and overwhelmingly powerful concept album that garnered the band international acclaim.
