#5 - Akka

Akka translates as "Worsening" from Japanese to English.

Akka were a raw crustcore band from Japan, who instantly remind me of Ekkaia, for some reason. They had 3 releases out between 2008-2015, the band features Doi from Forward (who themselves have members from Death Side). So this band has people who have been involved for decades.

Here we have the 5 Songs EP (7") from 2012, released through Hardcore Survives (Records), Japan. Home to Kaltbruching Acideath (Let me know if you have their tape for sale by going to Raw Shit-Fi Noise Punk Facebook group, asking for a mate), Isterismo, Unarm, Mob 47, Perdition, Life and plenty of other greats.

5 noise drenched tracks in 11 minutes.

Enjoy.
