Axis: Sova, Time Room, Tender Comrade

On their journey from blown-out solo bedroom project to full-blown band, Axis: Sova have been described as "prime movers of robo-boogie for the central United States" (NPR) and "like The Stooges riding shotgun on a Suicide track" (Pitchfork). Yet their mutant glam has truly crystallized on a different level with their latest, Blinded By Oblivion. The group - Brett Sova, Jeremy Freeze, and Josh Johannpeter - wrote their new album within the steel-grey confines of their hometown, Chicago, then flew out to Southern California and recorded it at Harmonizer Studios with Ty Segall producing. Axis: Sova have recently toured and shared stages with Ty Segall, Purling Hiss, Ryan Davis, and Prison as well as Body/Head, White Fence, David Nance, and Wand over the years. They have performed at Noise Pop Festival, Cropped Out Festival (x3!), Tomorrow Never Knows Fest, Hopscotch Festival, Leffingeleuren Festival(BE), and more. Time Room is an art punk/garage rock trio hailing from Minneapolis. Led by vocalist/guitarist Ben Richer, Time Room’s sound blends heavy riffs, hardcore tempos, and danceable rhythms - like Television meets Minor Threat in the green room of a Rush concert. Their debut album, Something New, is available now. Tender Comrade - Deceptively simple, lyrically abstract, catchy, 2 minute bursts of sometimes swirly art punk. Tender Comrade is Knol Tate, Travis Collins and Elliot Manthey,
