- release notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -



Simply beautiful music. You need this record.



"To listen to Jakob is to journey through the harsh, beautiful, isolated

landscape of the Hawkes Bay, NZ, that is their home. Swelling but direct,

beautiful and uplifting yet intense and hard. Jeff Boyle (guitar), Maurice

Beckett (bass) and Jason Johnson (drums) got together in 1998, to realize a

musical vision they all shared. The result is nothing short of a beautiful

contradiction; Uplifting yet dark and intense, both sonically massive and

delicately complex. Jakob defy definition and while many influences come to

mind theirs is a unique sound. A sonic landscape. With three albums, Subsets

of Sets, Cale:Drew & Solace under their belts, Jakob continue to explore new

musical horizons."
