Akimbo Biography

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.

Info regarding homonymous Acid Jazz/Fusion band and their only album "On Top":

Akimbo band was formed when Nick van Gelder, original drummer of Jamiroquai met The Brand New Heavies' guitarist Simon J Bartholomew. Simon suggested Nick Seymour, Brand New Heavies' bassist to come along. With participations of Marcina Arnold on vocals, Jessica Lauren on keyboards and Kofi Kari Kari on Percussion, "On Top" album was recorded in a jamming atmosphere, with mostly instrumental tracks. A rare and a must-have for any Acid Jazz, Soul and/or Funk fans.
