Following up on the huge success of their sold-out event at Howler earlier this year, Melbourne progressive and psychedelic bands Khan and Lucid Planet are taking their show on the road for Lucid Planet’s first ever Australian tour; a mind-expanding co-headlined music event like no other, set to hit six stages across five states and territories between late August and early October this year!
Lucid Planet is a psychedelic, progressive band from Melbourne, Australia combining influences of psychedelic bass music with djent, tribal and progressive rock for a divergent sound that interfuses genres. Following explosive performances at 170 Russell, Tanglewood Festival and a sold-out Howler Melbourne event, Lucid Planet embark on their first ever Australian Tour, bringing forth their unique and powerful display of music, visuals and lights (with the added special inclusion of a brand-new song!), performing some of the most popular tracks from their self-titled debut album Lucid Planet along with songs from their most recent album Lucid Planet II, MetalStorm.Net’s Best Progressive Album of 2020.
Khan meld hazy psychedelia and heavy stoner riffs with a penchant for progressive rhythms and almost dirge-like, industrial-scale crescendos. The songs are lyrically evocative, exuding a sense of despondency and melancholy. Vocally, their songs waver from ethereal falsetto and hypnotic crooning to impassioned wailing punctuated by occasional guttural screams. After touring Australia, Europe and the UK in 2022, Melbourne-based heavy psych/prog trio Khan return in 2023 with their third album ‘Creatures’, their heaviest, darkest and most dynamic release to date.
