In the technical sense, every previous album by the radiant and heavy French trio Slift 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. Their acclaimed third album, 2024's 'Ilion', was a sci-fi story built with ten-to-13-minute exploratory escapades, often starting with doom metal or stoner rock before spinning freely into glorious instrumental oblivion. But, in a bit of intentional irony, Slift's fourth album is actually called 'Fantasia'. It's their leanest and most direct record to date. It is also their most riveting album yet, a pointed saga about overcoming international upheaval delivered by a band bearing down, not wasting a single second in the process.
