Accountable To None

About Me

"Kings are justly called Gods, for that they exercise a manner or resemblance of divine power upon earth. For if you will consider the attributes to God, you shall see how they agree in the person of a king. God hath power to create, or destroy, make or unmake at his pleasure, to give life or send death, to judge all, and to be judged nor accountable to none."
- James I's speech before parliament, March 1609.
Rock music ebbs and flows. It has its trends. It has its image. It has its waves, its peaks, its valleys. It has its stars, its icons, its figureheads, many of which burn out and fade away. Accountable To None dont concern themselves with the current rock, Metal climate or with what's cool right now or with constructing an image. Rather, Accountable To None care about crafting tight, solid, unforgettable, and timeless music that will live on long after the members have left this earth.For Accountable To None, its all about the music and only the music. Its about making massive riffs complemented by versatile vocals, finished off by booming percussion and rippling bass rhythms. Its about getting down and dirty and rocking the hell out. This is rock, the way its supposed to be done. "We just do what we want to do which is why we are Accountable To None".

Music:

Member Since: 12/16/2005
Band Website: http://www.a2n.niodesign.com/band.html
Band Members:
Gaz - Lead Vocals

Gaz's contribution to A2N are emotional, meaningful lyrics expressed with soulful, powerful vocals which could bring a tear to the eyes of someone with the hardest of hearts, this guy is the most amazing frontman any band could wish for.

As a noteable focal point of the band Gaz is the voice of A2N, the band are not complete without him and in turn he is not complete without them.

Scott - Guitar & Backing Vocals

Scott is one part of the lethal guitar combo that make A2N, his expressive, emotional guitar playing and diverse musical style are second to none, he can make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck and then make you wanna break your bones in a mosh pit in one move.

Winnie - Bass

Winnie is the subsonic assassin within the ranks of A2N, his subtle bass playing can suddenly turn into a full assault that'll leave you vibrating in your shoes for days on end, a master of ceremonies Winnie can orchestrate a moshpit with one note from his drop tuned K5 bass.

Mark - Drums

Mark, the driving force, the innovative madman behind A2N's percussion, with lightning speed and precision he can go from soft beats to moving mountains with a drum style that can only be described as explosive, a force to be rekoned with Mark can provide the double kick driven soundtrack to a riot.

Along with Winnie, Mark makes up the unique rythmic backbone to the epic, larger than life music that A2N produce.

All of the above go to form the unmistakeable, electric, intense sound that makes Accountable To None who they are and make no mistake...who they are is a force to be rekoned with.

REVIEWS:

"The palpable ability and ambition of this band is astonishing and they undoubtedly possess the goods to take on the world."
- Rock Sound 8/10

"These fellas certainly have the talent to make it to the next level, intense yet melodic, they reminded me a bit of Coheed & Cambria. Go for it chaps, i'll hopefully see you at the next craft fair in Stoke."
- Math Priest, Rhythm Magazine.

"Accountable to None do what they do well, and that is deliver powerful, epic sounding, hypnotic rock that could douse the light from a bulb with its mood."
- Paul, Raw Nerve.

The single "Down" hit the Number 1 spot in the top 30 UK unsigned bands chart in November 2006.

"One rockin' group from Stoke on Trent blasted out studio 1 in a wall of sonic sound. That'll be Accountable To None then, who delivered a powerful live session for SUBCulture."
- Matt & Dave, BBC Radio SUBculture Show.

"Ladies and gentlemen, may i introduce - Scott, Ash, Winnie, Mark and Gaz. No, not the 'famous five' just yet, just a bunch of lads got together to form the group commonly known as ''Accountable to None'. Their mission, to bring a brand of rock ballad to the many in the form of enchantment through music. Their statement, anything is achievable if you work hard enough to get it and work hard enough to maintain it. I am totally in awe of these guys, i cant give higher praise. They have a dream and by god they are going for it."
- Keith, Promoter and Organiser of The U - Festival.

"A melodic metal band who's stage presence and musical prowess are second to none. Their devoted fans never leave their side."
- UPstart
