We wish you all a merry christmas and a wonderful happy new year. 2017 is going to be an AXXIS year with a new cd called "RETROLUTION", a book (in German) called "Eine Nacht im Theater" and a tour:
So stay tuned and we'll see us!

AXXIS announcing new CD release, which will be released at 24.February 2017 and a new tour, coming up in March/April 2017.

Bernhard: "I've been sitting in the Soundworx studio for several month now to record and mix the new AXXIS album and it was quite difficult to find a cd title representing all of our new songs.
But than we found out that the title was there all the time ...very close, the whole production through. We just need a word to express what it's all about.
After the euphoric digital evolution there's a kind of trend back to "retro" and "vintage". vinyl records, tape recording, rebuild of old school euipment etc.
It seems that we're all living in a kind of "vintage" or "retro" revolution. But that was exactly the time we 're coming from. And who could be better understand this than a band that has experienced this period of time...like us:-) So, we've created a title that should express this feeling and - of course - the mood of the songs! And... RETROLUTION was born!"

So the news AXIS CD RETROLUTION will be released at 24th,February 2017 and the RETROLUTION TOur will start in March 2017. Here you can get the tourdates

AXXIS are going to release their new album at February 24th, 2017! Again under their own label Phonotraxx and Soulfood for distribution. Right now Bernhard is sitting in the SOUNDWORXX studio mixing all new songs. Album titel and details are coming soon on this website.

Bernhard: "We really have a had a lot of magic monents during this production. We hope that we've catched them all on tape. The idea of going a little bit more into pure rock causes a lot of interesting things on this record. I'll do my best to feature this in the mix!"

Again the band will invite some fans for a prelistingen session in Germany

Im 2015 AXXIS decided to offer all people on the guestlist to donate a self-chosen amount for the Loveparade foundation called Duisburg 24-7-2010. This foundation helps and supports relatives and victims in a long term.
So, the result of the AXXIS collection is 700,-€.
THANXX to everybody: All fans, guests, journalists and photographers who donated for this idea. Harry and Bernhard presented the money in May 2016 directly to the foundation in front of the city hall of Duisburg.

Since AXXIS have written their song "21 crosses" regarding the Loveparade tragedy the band is in contact with the relatives and the foundation. In 2014 they have played on the commemoration for the Loveparade tragedy.
Bernhard:" We will never forget this very emotional day when we've plaved in front of all affected parents and people concerned. Till this moment I was not aware of the feedback we've got, how deep our song touched the people. They appreciate this kind of musical memorial for the victims and we - especially as a rockband- are very proud to this very emotional response!"

So, donate again whenever you want: Foundation website

Independent meets Independent!

AXXIS are looking forward to cooperation with filmmaker Rene Zimmerman who wants to produce a movie called SEVEN-DEVILS - an independent project with an outstanding story and high-class pictures.

Two like- minded artists are working together to create a great movie with atmospheric picture and a powerful story.

ATTENTION! The AXXIS song THE WAR will be released on our youtube channel this weekend. So watch out for it!

Bernhard: "We have seen parts of the film and we're impressed by the quality and the story: This is what the Ruhr area (our home) needs, an authentic, incredibly exciting and atmospheric cinema movie!
We also working with our own label and our band independently. So this fits perfectly together. To support this great but very expensive project, the Seven Devils need support by our fans.
This is our first experience with crowdfundig and if you want to see AXXIS music in a great cinema movie support us!"
