A psychedelic project masterminded by Chicago musician Brett Sova, Axis: Sova produce a trippy, art-damaged form of lo-fi boogie rock framed by pulsating drum-machine beats and laced with copious amounts of effects. Initially a solo venture, with early recordings like 2012's Weight of a Color performed entirely by Sova, the project blossomed into a full band for performances and releases like 2018's Shampoo You and the Ty Segall-produced 2023 album Blinded by Oblivion.
