A Brazilian band that built a following before facing controversy over a singer's remarks.
For a sense of their earlier energy, try 'É Nós' or 'Curta Metragem.' The Skeeter feature 'Mundos Em Particular' shows their collaborative side before things got complicated.
AXL's music, like the Skeeter collaboration 'Antes do Meu Final,' found an audience with its mix of pop, rock, and electronic sounds. Their story took a sharp turn in 2021 when vocalist Maicon Rodrigues made statements that sparked accusations of racism and homophobia. The backlash forced a pause and a public apology, making their catalog part of a larger conversation about accountability in music.
They formed in 2014, playing local bars and festivals before releasing the EP 'Compasso' in 2018. After gaining traction with songs like 'Tudo que Eu Queria,' they collaborated with rapper Skeeter on tracks such as 'Feito Com A Gente.' The 2021 controversy led to a hiatus and a stated focus on inclusivity afterward.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
