Stake (stylized in all caps), formerly known as Steak Number Eight, is a Belgian post-metal/sludge metal band based in Wevelgem.

Their music is a combination of post-rock and sludge metal, and is influenced by bands like Pelican, Isis, Sunn O))) and Amenra.

[6] In March 2011 the band released their second album All is Chaos produced by Mario Goossens and mixed by Matt Bayles.

[5] The album received overwhelmingly positive feedback[citation needed] and was later released in 2012 in the UK by Metal Hammer, who then added the band to their Razor Tour at the end of the year.

One week before its Belgian release, De Standaard posted an online stream of the full album.
