Cheer (2023)
Calgary, AB
Cheer is a homegrown beast of prog-rock virtuosity. Over two releases — including the three-part psych epic Time and Space — the group has sharpened its unpredictable compositions into a lethal brand of “wonk rock.” Upcoming album Palingenesis promises to induce psychedelic mind fuzz, as does the band’s Sled Island debut performance.
