About Me


If you are so inclined to read this bio, you must be one of the many looking to divulge the secrets of Akierima, and how many secrets there are! While the band is shrouded in mystery, an attempt to shed some light on this phenomenon will be made here, but please use discretion. Akierima is not something to be discussed lightly.
First, it must be noted that with such a wide range of musical and artistic influences, the band is not likely something you have ever heard before. From the crushing melodies of bands like Mono, to the cryptic lyrics and sometimes angular guitar riffs of bands like The Mars Volta, Akierima blends powerful sounds and emotions together in their music to create something truly epic in proportion.
The effort that goes into their live shows fills the performance with such energy that audiences often find themselves illuminated with the radiation given off by the band. Residing somewhere in the town of Holden, MO, the four members of the group spend their days routinely exhausting every ounce of their creative energy to give birth to something that not only pleases the average listener, but challenges them, forces them into metaphysical places that were previously unimaginable. And you thought nicotine was addictive.

Sounds Like: Imagine a rolling field of daises in spring. White puffy clouds populate the sky and look on as a humming bird is getting his fill of nectar, and a honey bee does his natural duty of pollination. A soft breeze caresses the petals of each flower, and carries their scent to a deer, who is drinking from a near by creek. The creek's waters are perpetually replenished by a gentle waterfall, with water so crisp and clear, that the fish can easily be seen, swimming blissfully about. Everything fits into its niche like a complex, and beautifully crafted puzzle.
