| SHORT
BAND/ARTIST HISTORY: |
AnAkA is a heavy
metal/ hard rock band from Brooklyn, New York with its musical
influences ranging from Metallica to Alice In Chains and Black
Sabbath. AnAkA was originally formed in 2000 but has quickly
established a fan base in the NY underground heavy metal and
hard rock scene aswell as the rest of the U.S.A.. AnAkA has
performed and has also headlined historic and world famous N.Y.C.
rock venues such as CBGB's, The Continental, L'Amour, Castle
Heights, etc., and they can be described as being a very powerful
live band, who can move their audience sonically, physically,
and even psychologically. AnAkA's music off of "Down Devil's
Road," has been played and requested on national radio
stations here in the United States.
Along with making
a well respected name for themselves in the U.S. underground
hard rock/ heavy metal world, AnAkA is ranked the #1 most requested
band and #1 album on the European radio station CRETE FM, in
turn AnAkA has started building a strong fan base in Europe.
AnAkA is also being played on hard rock/ heavy metal radio stations
in Argentina. Word of AnAkA's good name and its earth shaking
music is swiftly spreading all across the globe. AnAkA, "Down
Devil's Road" is the bands first studio album, and it contains
7 kick ass heavy and heart felt tracks. AnAkA's music is rage,
heartbreak, self realization, love, honor and wisdom ... powerful
music for the outlaw-thinker that is found in all of us. AnAkA
is currently in the studio working on AnAkA, "Rust &
Jade," the bands second studio album, which is due to be
released Fall 2003. The members of AnAkA strongly believe that
"Rust & Jade" will show the rest of the music
world what AnAkA is truly all about.
AnAkA has also signed
with GODSEND RECORDS, and the band strongly feels that this
label is just what they were looking for, one that would let
AnAkA continue to AnAkA. For band info, show dates, band pictures,

Devil's Road" or to get updates about AnAkA, "Rust

INFO/COMMENTS FROM THE BAND/ARTIST: |
"Our music
is honesty, it's about who we are. It's about the strength of
the human spirt enduring. It's not for the look or a trend.
Such things mean nothing to us. It's about being ourselves and
creating the music we feel defines us. Our music can bring you
from the lowest lows, back to the highest highs. Does it come
easy? Yes. Is it genius? Mabye. Is it work? Never. Are you jealous?
Always. Are you inspired? Truly. Maybe one day our spirits will
live on in our songz ... Until then, watch us live life, and
remember, Stay Wild Alwayz." - Peter Pallis, Guitarist
of AnAkA
"Our music sometimes
feels like it's all I need to get through. When I'm up on stage,
sweating out every note, I realize that that's what life is
all about. For that moment we're showing that audience what
we are and what we are great at, and that's a very powerful
feeling. Life for me hasn't always been the easiest thing to
deal with, it tends to suck at times ... but one thing is for
sure no matter what, our music is my life and my life is our
music, and that's what it's all about, that's what AnAkA is
all about. Keep it heavy and keep the beerz and Ketle One rolling
in." Jimmy Pallis, Lead Singer of AnAkA
"In the life
of AnAkA there are so many great qualities. A band of brothers
who compose this energy of bliss. The ability to feel something
inside and have it run out your fingers is incredible. Just
the sight of seeing peoples reactions to the music is payback
enough. Long live the life of AnAkA and our fans." - Karl
Andreassen, Bass Guitarist of AnAkA
"Thanks to the
fans that support us and our music, and f@#k those who don't
believe. To my best friends Pete, Jimmy and Karl, thanks for
giving me the opportunity to play and rock with you guys."
- Tony Heredia, Drummer & Percussionist of AnAkA.
