Akimbo

band website myspace label: Alternative Tentacles / Seventh Rule label type: Indie

Akimbo, "The Robotic Lords Of Chaos" are a long-lived band from Seattle that effectively blends the styles of hardcore punk and classic rock.

Forming in the 90's, Akimbo went for a more progressive/punk approach in their earlier efforts (as seen on their split 10'' with Teen Cthulhu, and the "Army Of Evil Robots..." 7'' EP) before "finding their sound" around 2002/03 with the release of "Elephantine" their sophomore full length. Akimbo has toured inside (and out) of the United States relentlessly for several years, and has built a cult fanbase across the globe.

In 2005, they found a fan in Jello Biafra, owner of Alternative Tenctacles records, who signed them to his popular label. Their newest release "Forging Steel And Laying Stone" (2006) on AT has thrust them to the spotlight of the new rock movement.
