Intense. Brutal. Uncompromising. Just a few words to describe the sound and presence of Brooklyn, New York Metal ensemble AnAkA. Since its inception in late 2000, AnAkA has left a blistering mark in the Heavy Metal and Hard Rock scene around North America and overseas. The Godsend Records release of its first full length record in 2004, “RUST & JADE,” proved so as it received outstanding praise from thousands of fans around the world as well as several major label reps. “RUST & JADE” received (and in several markets still is) considerable airplay at numerous radio stations, especially in the New York City area. “RUST & JADE” helped catapult AnAkA to performances at notable venues in Irving Plaza, Knitting Factory, Blender Theater, Warsaw, Starland Ballroom, Count Basie Theatre, Continental and CBGB’s.
AnAkA’s biggest impact to date was the music video release of the “RUST & JADE” title track in September 2007. Directed by Kevin J. Custer, “RUST & JADE” received airplay in several international markets including MTV Latino, covering every country in South America and Central America, and portions of the United States in Florida, Texas and California. The video was also featured on Music Choice’s Video On Demand rock channel in April 2008.
AnAkA’s skills and success are'nt only revered in the music scene. In June 2008, AnAkA was given the honor to create the theme music for former World Wrestling Federation Champion The Ultimate Warrior in his return to the ring in Barcelona, Spain.
While “RUST & JADE” continues making an enormous impact, AnAkA is ready to unleash another monster record, scheduled for release in spring 2009. The deafening crowd responses at live AnAkA performances for the new material only shows the limitless levels the band's potential will reach!
Endorsements for AnAkA include Halo Custom Guitars, Basson Sound Equipment, EMG Pickups, Pike Apparel and Horns High clothing line.
