Follow my Instagram Sponsor the Podcast!Give me money on my Patreon Anakin is a San Diego alternative rock band formed in 2010, blending heavy guitars, spacey synths, and catchy melodies. Drawing inspiration from Weezer, HUM, Failure, Nirvana, and the Rentals, their sound brings together '90s alternative rock and dreamy, atmospheric textures. Their debut album, Random Accessed Memories, arrived in 2012, followed by Celestial Frequency Shifter through No Sleep Records in 2015. With fuzzy riffs and a fascination with outer space, Anakin makes music that feels both familiar and otherworldly.
