Get in a star-coveting trance with Giöbia’s new track »Fractal Haze«

“Six-plus minutes of post-cosmic exploration, shimmering like new science in a paper magazine reflecting light from a drop ceiling in 1975.” — The Obelisk

“»Fractal Haze« drops us straight into our space rock territory – circular, mind-warping and wired with lysergic energy. It’s a bold first look at a record that heads off in some unexpected directions,” says the foursome about this awe-inspiring first excerpt.

Giöbia has been building sonic bridges between the cosmos and what we can call reality for a decade now, and with »X-ÆON«, theu push their signature blend of mesmerizing neo-psychedelia and space rock into uncharted territory. Echoes of the ’70s meet a bold, forward-looking vision, shaping an album that feels timeless. Each track offers a glimpse into a parallel reality, a plunge into a new era brimming with tension and mystery.

The mystical day 60s rock met neo-psychedelic rock, mixing up to the point of losing consciousness of their own essence, that’s when Giöbia’s acid psychedelic rock was born, in an overwhelming and incessant soundtrack with an unmistakable Italian taste. In a vortex that leaves no way out, the unique melodies of this quartet take the listener into a world where the boundaries of reality are no longer defined and anything can ever happen.

After their debut in 2009 with »Hard Stories«, Giöbia firmly established themselves in 2013 with »Introducing Night Sounds«, which suddenly brought them to the most important stages of Europe, until in 2016 the milestone »The Magnifier« assigned them a place among the most influential bands of the scene. Giöbia went on astonishing their audience by forging »Plasmatic Idol«, which saw the light in 2020 via Heavy Psych Sounds and reconfirmed them as the forefathers of a genre that fascinates and amazes anyone who dares to leave themselves behind without fear of never returning. In 2021, Giöbia released their split album with The Cosmic Dead »The Intergalactic Connection – Exploring The Sideral Remote Hyperspace«, a must-have for every space traveler.

Unable to stop in front of any challenge, the quartet released »Acid Disorder« in 2023 on Heavy Psych Sounds, which expertly refines the band’s psychedelic rock attitude alongside a wide spectrum of intriguing sounds and textures. Now, after two years, it’s time for their sixth album to see the light on Heavy Psych Sounds.

Giöbia is:
Stefano ‘Bazu’ Basurto – Guitar / Vocals
Paolo ‘Detrji’ Basurto – Bass
Melissa Crema – Organs / Synthesizer
Pietro D’Ambrosio – Drums
