Drifter Colony is a gathering of disparate minds intent on a unified goal: delivering gravity and worshipping depth. Through a mixture of theatrical textures, deadly progressive riffs, and powerful vocals – this music takes you to a place not of this earth.

Based in Calgary, Alberta, this eclectic 5-piece explores themes of isolation, decay, and the haunting beauty of space.

Years in the making, »Not Of This Earth« is Drifter Colony’s arrival. This six-song, full-length album explores themes of isolation, otherness, and immensity through theatrical intricacy and heartfelt drive.

Physical copies available live and at driftercolony.square.site (& come with digital download code!).

Free digital booklet included with digital download.
