Sled Island presents: Ufomammut with White Hills and The Radiation Flowers + guests

Ufomammut
With a name that translates to UFO-mammoth, Ufomammut’s pummeling brand of progressive stoner rock conjures both the otherworldly and the monstrous. With eight albums under their belt, the Italian trio have won fans the world over with their increasingly conceptual albums and ever-changing live show.

White Hills
Enlisting a cut-and-paste looping style, White Hills invokes a rhythmically complex take on blistering post-punk. Focusing on the dismal realities of modern existence, clenched vocals twist through languid psychedelic guitar lines and abrasive industrial samples. This is dissent and desire wrapped in a new designer drug.

The Radiation Flowers
Saskatoon’s shoegaze supergroup turned psych rock champions create a blissful sonic playground using minimal chords to maximum effect. Meandering like a prairie river in summer with just a touch of twang, The Radiation Flowers are a campfire cry in a nuclear hurricane waiting to wash you away.

Chron Goblin
Chron Goblin offer a perfect concoction of swirling psychedelia and southern rock’s iconic drawl. Melodies peak and plummet over the course of any given track, and the vocals howl and moan along with the rhythmic thump. They’re a must-see for any rock fan at Sled Island.
