First Punch

AXiS

A raw, live-recorded debut channeling 1970s power-trio energy. Gritty blues-rock riffs meet extended psychedelic jams and soulful, raspy vocals.

It sounds like a 1972 power trio jam session that accidentally got recorded in high definition.

A high-voltage, sweat-soaked revival of vintage blues-rock grit and improvisational fire.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The eight-minute expansion of Your Love where the Hammond organ bleeds into a swirling psychedelic breakdown.
The sudden, sharp guitar attack that opens Snakebite, mimicking the title's aggression with a wah-heavy solo.
The way the room reverb captures the natural decay of the drums during the final seconds of Leaving You.
