Axis plays The Hideout, a 150-capacity small room in Goose Island, on Friday, November 6. Also on the bill: Melkbelly and Temps. Doors open at 7:30 PM and the show starts at 8 PM. Tickets are $20 plus fees. This one could sell out: big draw for a room this size (54k listeners, 150 capacity).
An adaptive sense of 'post-punk' may be the most 'way' to file Chicago's Axis: Sova, the trio of Brett Sova, Jeremy Freeze, and Josh Johannpeter. The broad definitions of rock and its branches are rich blood that froths in Axis: Sova's veins, and they enjoy progressive tactics when spilling it. Their new LP, Flowerage, employs fresh shocks and clear patterns in sound - fuzzed n’ phased guitar and bass complemented by righteously dynamic, organic/electronic drum synthesis.

Melkbelly is a 4 piece noise rock band from Chicago made up of Liam Winters, Miranda Winters, Bart Winters, and James Wetzel. They are known for their frantic arrangements, toothed melodies, and blaring live show.
Temps is a 40-strong international music collective, consisting of artists across multiple genres, fronted by a cartoon alligator.
