Alternative Tentacles is throwing a contest in celebration of Akimbo's new full length Navigating the Bronze. Here's the scoop:
"Dude, I totally navigated the bronze last night!"What does that sentence mean to you? This elusive phrase has not been explicitly defined by Akimbo, the band who created this mysterious album title. Many theories have been informally offered, none to our satisfaction. However, we want to make "Navigating the Bronze" as ubiquitous as "Ghostriding the Whip" or "Oh no you dih–ent!" in the youth lexicon.
We leave it up to you, the creative AT fan, to fill in semiotic gap left wide by our well–coiffed Seattle trio. Stretch those vocab muscles and enter to win a signed vinyl copies of said album Navigating the Bronze. We have two LPs, both signed and embellished by all three members of Akimbo.
That sounds like something you guys can accomplish in your sleep.
