Kelowna, BC, Canada’s rising psychedelic stoner rock outfit SweetBeast is stoked to reveal their new single âDream Eaterâ taken off their debut album âIllusionsâ. The single showcases the band’s signature blend of celestial psychedelia and earth-shaking desert rock across its hypnotic 5:29 runtime. The band comments:
âThis track holds a special place in our hearts, as it has been with us on our journey since the inception of SweetBeast in 2018. âDream Eaterâ explores the delicate interplay between dreams and reality, capturing the essence of fleeting thoughts and whimsical fantasies. With its haunting melodies and evocative lyrics, we aim to transport our audience to a world where the subconscious reigns supreme.â
With this single, as with the entire album, SweetBeast is aiming to give fans a fully immersive listening experience as they ferry them through the deep, heavy grooves and layered, psychedelic soundscapes as if they’re on a journey through the mind or some otherworldly place.
The record âIllusionsâ is characterized by low-tuned guitars, swirling effects, and a lockstep rhythm section that creates a dense, atmospheric foundation for the band’s explorations. The album’s lyrical content draws from personal experiences and societal observations, examining themes of love, struggle, and the quest for authenticity in modern life. Each song invites listeners to confront their realities while being swept away by the band’s hypnotic grooves and mind-bending progressions.
SweetBeast invites you to lose yourself in their cosmic fusion, a living, breathing entity that wants you to explore the echoes of reverberating guitars and the rhythmic heartbeat of the desert. They are especially recommended for fans of Queens Of The Stone Age, All Them Witches, and Alice In Chains.

âSweetBeast creates tunes akin to an acid trip in the 70s â ideal for headbanging and perfect for getting lost in.â – Kelowna Now
âMaking their first appearance on stage in Vancouver after making the trek from Kelowna, something I always appreciate. Shows the band believes they have something more people need to hear and are willing to live the road life to spread their sound. With this confidence comes a great live show, exactly what we got last night. Still grooving in the stoner/psych rock vein, SB leaned into the psychedelic direction a little more. Some great damn rock songs in here lead by a great singer armed with a voice that fit the vibe/sound so well. Fuzz heavy guitars shredding away and more than a few great little solos gave this set its flavor. Got some heavy 70âs era psychedelic vibes with all the wonderful squeals and squeaks coming from them. Just beautiful. Far and away though, the sexiest part of this offering were those drums. With the drummer exuding confidence in their ability, they gave us a great set full of wonderful licks and fills. Always in command on each song they were a blast to watch, full of fun grooves to dance to.â – Elder God Productions (Live Review – RED GATE 22/11/03 – Vancouver)
