Akercocke

Akercocke are an English extreme metal band from London, formed in 1997 by Jason Mendonça and David Gray.

Akercocke later signed to Peaceville Records, releasing The Goat of Mendes in 2001, which reached number 4 in Terrorizer's album of the year chart.

Paul Scanlan left the band after this album, and was replaced by Matt Wilcock.

[5] Whilst touring to promote the album, due to the anti-Christian nature of the music, the band generated controversy in Northern Ireland when they scheduled a tour date in Belfast on 18 May 2007, and appeared on BBC1's debate show Nolan Live on 16 May 2007 to defend their right to play there.

The band posted a brand new song on YouTube, titled "Inner Sanctum" on 18 June 2017.
