Mugstar is a psychedelic rock band hailing from Liverpool, UK. Formed in 2003, they have been captivating audiences with their unique blend of mind-bending sounds and mesmerizing performances. Drawing inspiration from the likes of *White Hills*, *SubArachnoid Space*, and *Eternal Tapestry*, Mugstar has carved out their own distinct sound that sets them apart from the rest.
With influences ranging from krautrock to space rock, Mugstar creates an immersive sonic experience that transports listeners to another dimension. Their music is characterized by hypnotic rhythms, swirling guitars, and atmospheric textures that take you on a journey through time and space.
Having shared the stage with renowned acts such as *The Oscillation*, *The Heads*, and *Pharaoh Overlord*, Mugstar has solidified their position as one of the leading bands in the psychedelic rock scene. Their live performances are legendary, captivating audiences with their raw energy and improvisational prowess.

'axis' is mugstar's long awaited fifth full length album - an expansive collection of songs that take the listener on a journey. the destination is not important it's all about the journey - travelling through different movements, diverse colours and sounds picking up from where lime left us in august 2011. from the dark brooding ('black fountain') to the elevating ('tangerina'), the cylindrical ('axis modulator') and the sonic mantra ('upturnsidedown') axis showcases a more diverse mugstar whilst retaining their unmistakeable sonic wall of sound. albeit mainly instrumental, theres a real psychedelic groove that emanates from the kraut-rock inspired sounds of this record, it will shake you down in the same way the first time you copped earfuls of oneida, neu!, loop, wooden shjips, bardo pondo and even a puff of hawkwind.
