jyosefu Great vocal harmonies! The first time I heard the title track it was like being struck by lightning! Checked out the rest and was not disappointed in the least! Rock on Akord! Favorite track: Ethereality.

Yenneffer I have been binging on this album hard ever since it got suggested to me on Spotify. Amazing vocals, even better instrumentation and extremely catchy melodies. I can't get enough! Favorite track: Wall.
Raimond Fischbach

Raimond Fischbach The boys have delivered an album full of experimental heavy and grungy rock. The song-writing is just perfect, and the true-to-the-mic production makes many of the modern, over-produced bands seem like the audio equivalent of a flat beer. Aperture, followed by Upon Reflection are my favourites, because one can hear the smiles of joy while the band was playing this complicated stuff!

ignotium You popped up in my discover weekly, and blew my fucking brains out in less than a minute. I've been binging on your album like a devout crack addict. I want you guys to thrive. I love this album, and there's more music here! woohoo! I love your sound, the mix is really good; the drumming is solid, the riffing sticks with you, I love that; sick voice! I can finally hear that bass! great job guys! Favorite track: Compose Yourself.

Levels 04:08
Well now that we have all reached the day This is where you hold and take nothing over me you'll soon see Cause we're cheating to lose Deciding to choose A life where... We read it all wrong And preached for too long… Reciting In an unfamiliar tongue… We could say we're at fault, Pretending we've got these choices Singing along, Now we're selling our voices… How could this go so wrong? Down! I can feel you hit the ground Reach the depth of no other. Set alight, to those who might, Sympathise For I have seen you tumble down Reach the depth of no other. You'll push away from those who brave A compromise Well you should be deposed Right from your throne And your rules, they should be overgrown Buried all revealed Exposed to all those that you have known Known forever You should try and cure it Crawl on through to hear that Final "no" See what you can do about it Down! I can feel you hit the ground Reach the depth of no other. Set alight, to those who might, Sympathise For I have seen you tumble down Reach the depth of no other. You'll push away from those who brave A compromise

There's so many questions why, It fills in our heads, the negative space that shines bright It's that you're failing to provide, A state of mind, the changes that build and grow inside me. Separately, on my own I'll find what it takes to get home! Well this is your life, but we are you, secure so you don’t Separate from what is yours Don’t stray, a generation thrown away. Don’t you discard their sight No spineless rewrite compose yourself for this Change that you know you continue to grow compose yourself You discard their sight No spineless rewrite Compose yourself For this change that you know You refuse to let go This you should know! This is your life, but we are you, secure so you don’t separate from what is yours Don’t stray, a generation thrown away

Outlines 04:39
With the shelter to provide And no secrets to hide I've paid this impossible Debt that you owed But I should have known That you're tethered to your bone And I've thrown so much That I would have nothing to collect You should find the fix to mend For you to try A new outline In time It's for you to try You gotta help me! Design an inconstant mind This new thought that we're building ahead Well soon you'll find that There is nothing left to change We have erased this last part We continue to evolve But are we going the right way? You say, oh that's just the price you'll have to pay! Well find the fix to mend For you to try A new outline In time It's for you to try This unrested spiral has nowhere to fall Sheltered but paid in full To amend this at all There's nowhere to fall with this unrested mind My thoughts are confined Can't feel anymore To stand in line Confide! Within this outline. Something says that You should find the fix to mend Its for you to try Find the fix to mend for you to try A new outline In time It's for you to try You gotta help me!

Strive to See past the skies with untried eyes, You take in the grace we undermine. Open up to this world that's in front of you. So don't just follow suit, Cause it's your undoing now. Take what you have, That makes your being. (So put your mind over it) Now that you've dragged me in (Dragged me in!), You forgot to tell me how to swim. I'll pull you down, Tell you how to drown your, Isolated, introverted, closed mind Locked so you won't know, That I'll turn you around, Run this blessed vessel aground. Who am I, To decide, A feeling that can't be so feared so ill defined? A better way, so to say, Tell them to keep it from forming in this mind. So hide! So hide! It's so weak of you to compare, Spinning a lie, pretending you're up there. People alike propelling us nowhere, Delving through, an ending truth About the world that's in front of you. Now that you've seen past the skies You'll see what's in front of you Right in front of you Why couldn't we just open our eyes? (Now you put your mind over it) Now that you've dragged me in (Dragged me in!), You forgot to tell me how to swim. I'll pull you down, Tell you how to drown your, Isolated, introverted, closed and locked So you won't know, That i'll turn you around.

Wall 04:36
We came from way out back, so far away We tried to track this distant prey So heed our warning it's not ok to be fickle, got to be careful Not to stay faithful in what they say. It's your own way. You gotta Take the power from it and Destinate your chosen path From your broken past Stealing what you had for another Your fate is in your closing hands Fading faster than you had planned Just think of how feeling low Will take its toll Pushing past this giant wall May cure it all But you'll be needing to hold on through As it's passing you It's the guidance taking control Making thoughts anew So break faith Make haste Hold on through Take the power from it and Destinate your chosen path From your broken past Stealing what you had for another Your fate is in your closing hands Fading faster than you had planned Make ready, amend Choose help without a fret Cause it's known that to Reach this all time high You lose something, A separate kind of drive The kind of focus that is needed to stay alive With all this change in coming days You'll obsess to learn it It's been an age in making So break faith and make haste This ulterior motive is what it'll take to Go on your way! You gotta destinate On your chosen path From your broken past Stealing all you had. Destinate your chosen path From your broken past Stealing what you had for another Your fate is in your closing hands Fading faster than you had planned!

Keep out don't go in there Free of doubt they sleep unaware Creep in just to compare This greed you need, can wait for all I care! Take one everyday ideal for compelling, What we wanna let go. And how should we know, Who are the ones, When no one knows who we should fight for? How can this grow and go further a field, To be them, to be there All to aware. Of this glare! Look down on them Mistook yourself thinking that They knew too much But too little of sympathy Faking a creature that Dares to declare To develop a system to regulate danger Out there, so prepare, Yourself and thy neighbour Because what should come Is the absolute answer to make all these people aware. Focus, cast on distant Troubles out there Of this glare Look down on them Mistook yourself thinking that They knew too much But too little of sympathy Faking a creature that Dares to declare To develop a system to regulate danger Out there, so prepare, Yourself and thy neighbour Because what should come Is the absolute answer to make all these people aware See. If we could see. How easy it would be. If we could see.

Ethereality 04:43
Don't make this place a site for your Negativity, Negativity Those who choose to will only pine away Well this is what we've found: This single sound That alights each step Showing the way Into the divine Into the divine! Won't you see that Inbetween is where I immerse my mind I tried to find a new design In this scene is where I consume the light I tried to read the signs This is what we've found: This single sound It alights each step Showing the way In to the divine In to the divine Ethereality Means I can't emulate, I can't regulate I can't seem to go Cause it is Inbetween is where I immerse my mind I tried to find a new design In this scene is where I lost my mind I tried to read the signs I can't concentrate I can't emulate I can't regulate For I am nothing I can't concentrate For I will do it my own way… My own way! I will do it my own way My own way Cause I can't emulate I can't regulate I can't seem to go It's my own way!

Open up the case in question By keeping them near you won't realise,
 And shutting them down to stay divided, 
Is getting caught up to be beguiled, 
Leaving to hide you'll realise it's all over nothing, Now,
 So proud, 
 With this life, 
 That you enshroud. Less able to love, 
 With nothing to speak of,
 Maltreated from a level above. To make more sense of it all 
 You'd have to open up to where we fall, feel nothing at all,
 Keep life behind closed doors, caging alike to store,
 Open, allow to explore... even more. Failing on those you should love, Sheltering existence we knew, 
Is falling socially screwed,
 To fail overprotecting you,
 You’ll have to lose. To make more sense of it all 
 You'll have to open up to where we fall, feel nothing at all,
 Keep life behind closed doors, caging alike to store,
 Open, allow to explore... even more

Fulfil experience with a name, From start to finish,  But without the shame,  Out of the depths of our control, Exclusively forming a taste for free parole. Free hands express how we’ve grown, Ten-folding reasons to break the hold Free falling, tethered to your bone Another thought undersold, To walk through the unknown,  An ending to all that we should know. This life uncontrolled,  We have got to take hold,  To show you everything that we know.  The subtle divine,  This ethereal mind,  Will show you everything that we know.

about

Akord Glasgow, UK

Imagine Tool and Karnivool locked together in the sweet embrace of a musical orgy; a passion filled session with some light sweet jazz to set the mood. Incubus loiter in the room to tag in every so often and Biffy Clyro are there to serve the refreshments.

That's Akord.
