Aktung are a young band consisting of Alex, Elvis, Daniel, Zachery and they certainly have a bright future. The band puts a rock spin on many well-known songs ranging from John Denver, to Snow Patrol. They took to the stage at the SOPM Battle of the Bands and the crowd loved the raw renditions of many popular songs. A great band and one to keep an eye on.
“AKTUNG! is an original-focused rock and metal band comprised of musicians hailing from the far corners of the earth. They made their entrance into the scene after cutting their teeth reinventing and covering popular songs in a Guernsey bunker. With influences like blues, groove, prog and even country up their sleeve, there is no way to constrain them to a genre other than their own authentic, self-invented ethos.
Whether it be cursing the enemies of the band or launching into conspiracy theories, the creative direction and message of AKTUNG!’s original composition style is yet to be accepted by popular-culture in accordance with a blood-vow never to sell out. With singeing Aussie vocals, locally bred riffs, screaming leads and brutal slap pulled together by a welsh dragon smashing up the backbeat, there is no pilgrimage like the sound of AKTUNG!” Elvis
