SUMMARY:Sled Island and Servus Present: Tropical Fuck Storm\, Motherhood + Guests
DESCRIPTION:Tropical Fuck Storm\n“Supergroup” only begins to describe Tropical Fuck Storm\, a furious typhoon of hooky art punk and clangy noise rock straight out of Melbourne. Founded by Gareth Liddiard and Fiona Kitschin from The Drones and rounded out by Lauren Hammel of High Tension and Erica Dunn from Mod Con\, TFS made a loud statement with 2018 debut album A Laughing Death in Meatspace: the techpocalypse is upon us\, and they’re going to make it a party fuelled by wit and odd time signatures. \nFollowing a flurry of tour dates with Modest Mouse and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard\, TFS unveiled their second album to the world. Braindrops\, released in 2019 through Joyful Noise Recordings\, delivered mangled art-rock jams and swampy grooves that were described by Iggy Pop as “a good fuck” and earned a Austrailian Music Prize nomination. This was followed by Deep States\, a hyper-experimental stew of psych rock dirges that explored social media fuckery\, science fiction mind fuzz\, and conspiratorial compassion fade. Deep States was listed among NME’s 25 best Australian Albums of 2021 and received the Best Hard Rock or Heavy Metal Album award at the 2021 ARIA Awards. \nFollowing the skronky Satanic Slumber Party split EP with King Gizz in 2022 and the highly acclaimed Moonburn EP later that year\, the storm briefly cooled its fiery touring schedule in 2023. But the band is back in the saddle (and the studio)\, ripping across live dates on the path to Sled Island. Looking for an entry point? Their latest release\, the live album Inflatable Graveyard\, was recorded at the peak of their ‘22 “Fuck the Rain Away” tour and showcases over an hour of scorching wobble rock that blisters the skin and rings out the ears; a perfect taste of the psych-rock insanity in store for Calgary. \nMotherhood\nUplifting and unpredictable\, Motherhood has been some of eastern Canada’s finest purveyors of thoughtful art rock for over a decade. After relentlessly touring the world\, they’ve brought it altogether for their weirdest\, hookiest release yet: Thunder Perfect Mind\, a sci-fi concept album that squares the circle between Gnostic myths\, Morricone guitars\, Pixies-style wails\, and hardcore punk rippers. \nAbout Sled Island:\nSled Island is an annual five-day independent music and arts festival in Calgary\, Alberta that brings together a community of music\, comedy and art with nearly 30\,000 attendees in multiple venues across the city.
