The Canyon, by Slip Madigan
5 track album
slipmadigan.bandcamp.com
My original group’s latest release is something I’m really proud of: songcraft, fat grooves, shredding, aggressively weird synths, psychedelic freakouts, and more!
Check it out and whet your whistle for a new full-length dropping soon!
