Akron/Family
Meek Warrior
(Young God)
Scores of bands come out of seemingly nowhere these days to release incredible records, but none have the accomplished musicianship and ingenuity of Brooklyn’s Akron/Family. Riding on the coattails of their astonishing self-titled debut and Angels of Light split, their new full-length shows just how virtuosic the family is. Flipping easily between free-jazz ecstasy, captivating (and thankfully not freak-crunchy like thousands of crap ’06 albums) folk, and old fashioned rock ‘n roll, Meek Warrior is a success any other band would call their masterpiece. And these hotshots are just getting started.
