Formed in 2000, Ed-Äke began to make a name for themselves on the live scene,
before releasing a self-produced EP in 2003, Stade Kritik, and the
hardcore-oriented album In Loving Memory of a Dead Rock Band in 2007. The band
then switched to a headache-free stoner style, demonstrating their eclecticism
on 2010's Decadence and Poetry.
