About Me



In a brief description... Amoki were a hard-hitting electro rock band from Southampton formed in November 2004 and split in March 2007. In our time together we shared the stage with some awesome bands including Skindred, Dry Kill Logic, (Hed)pe, Breed 77, Million Dead, Senser, Rico, Twin Zero, Days Of Worth, Gay For Johnny Depp, Dopamine and many more.
We released our well recieved debut 6 track EP 'Prototype 1' which you can still buy online at amoki.com for less than a fiver so go get your hands on one if you like what you hear! Read our blog for reviews of that and further information.
There are many new projects in the pipeline from all of us. Matt has his new band up and running on myspace now, they are called i see sparks. Go and hunt them down! As soon as any more of our musical explorations are up we'll let you know.

Sounds Like: '...a genre-defying and splendid melee of off-kilter beats, pulsing electronica and stinging metallic riffs...watch this space' -- Kerrang!
'Loud, tight and only occasionally sounding like lead singer Kai Harris is vomiting down the microphone, Amoki's first EP is every angry teenagers wet dream; the perfect mixture of rock and hardcore' -- New Noise
'...absolutely breath-taking...pure, unadulterated bliss...this is immense. This is Amoki.' - 8/10 --Tiny Voices
'...definitely a band to keep an eye out for. They are so different from all the popular bands around right now and so worth listening to. If youre into industrial metal/rock and electronic music with an edge, this is for you' **** - Brilliant -- Alternative Vision
'This is one incendiary red-hot cauldron of a band with a heady brew that will explode your mind and make you dance, take you over and leave you breathless, quality with a capital "Q" and deserves to be heard in heavy rock emporia from one end of the globe to the other. World domination beckons.' -- Dead Earnest
'Something truly special...Each song is full of strong melodies and unbelievably catchy riffs' -- SouthScene
'Amoki blend a variety of styles, they take the experimentalism of post-hardcore to new level and try and achieve what so many have failed to do...an impressive collection of songs which may see Amoki go far' -- Smash Music
'...an intense slab of electro-infused metal, gargantuan with its grungy hooks and such an impassioned delivery assures that you'll be hearing about them very, very soon!' -- Subba-Cultcha
'There's hard hitting beats, crunchy guitars and digital noise, its an impressive offering' -- Jukebox
'Amoki blend vicious dance samples with hard-hitting melodic rock to create a driving and inspiring sound...a compulsive rush of digitial noise' -- Room Thirteen
'...an excellent heavy rock experience' 4.5/5 --Rock3 Radio
