Editorial Reviews

Product Description

With their colliding musical stylings, and experimental vocals, AKISSFORJERSEY doesn't seek to stand out of the crowd; they tower above it. In the same vain as such progressive artists as THE MARS VOLTA, and label mates SCAPEGOAT, and ALESANA, AKISSFORJERSEY pulls two completely different aspects of music together to make one complete genre of its own. The band's music lulls the listener into a carefree utopia one moment only to pull them to the ground with the brutal screams perfectly injected into their melodious songs. Since their formation in July 2004, the band has taken North Carolina by storm, leaving only dust in the wind, while stepping to the forefront of the highly popular Christian-Hardcore scene. Keep Your Head Above Water, the debut full length from AKISFORJERSEY proves that the band never disappoints. With crunching breakdowns, accompanied by the voices of angels singing, the definitive Experimental Christian-Hardcore record of the year is here.

This album is great from start to finish! The more you listen the more you fall in love with it... its well worth the money to buy it! the music is smooth and the vocals are awesome.. Its also nice to see a local band from my part of the nc that deserves just as much attention as any other act out there! if youre a fan of underoath or alexisonfire then youre gonna love this!
