The Serbian/Romanian power trio, AXiS, ensured the 70s rock n roll era made a monolithic return to the airwaves in 2023 with their elementally overdriven reinvention, Firewater.
Taking the iconic sounds from Black Sabbath, Hendrix, and Led Zeppelin and channelling a modern twist into the high gain guitars, the rock-reverent originators slathered Firewater with swagger and burning hot riffs that will turn your speakers into smoke machines.
After forming in 2012, the trio has shared its fair share of success as a touring band and in the studio. After their sophomore album left them pigeonholed as a blues rock band, they’ve proven with Firewater that their raw live sound is a million miles away from those roots. It’s straight-up sleazenik rock n roll that you will want to line up and drink warm beer for.
Firewater was officially released on April 1st. Stream it on Spotify.
