After five albums (on labels like Alternative Tentacles and Seventh Rule), Akimbo have achieved another personal best with the sinister and anthemic album Jersey Shores. A concept album spanning twelve days of brutal and savage shark attacks that haunted the New Jersey coast in 1916, Akimbo has allowed the dark subject matter to fester into the grain of their instruments and recreate their sound anew. Steering away from the beer- fuelled rock for rock's sake approach, the album treads into a more mysterious and brooding territory than previously heard from other releases, maturing the band's sound as a whole and adding a new chapter to the Akimbo saga.
The joining of Akimbo and Neurot for this tangential exploration couldn't have seen better pairing. With six hammering, primal, evocative, haunting tracks that transport the listener through 45 minutes of timeless fear, Jersey Shores marks the brandishing of a new weapon for Akimbo to wield after ten years of aggressive battle through the hallow pits of the rock and roll underground. Similarly, Neurot stands to gain a fierce ally in their already monumental roster of critically acclaimed artists who have continually aided in writing the book of sonic independence. The template has been carved, and in September of 2008 the molten steel will pour, burn, and harden.
