644 - Akercocke Horns of Baphomet 2001

Britain has sent out many bands into the battlefield of metal, some of them very important, Venom and Cradle of Filth being two of the most famous and now there is Akercocke. Drummer David Gray and vocalist/guitarist Jason Mendonca, the founding members, have been making music together since the early 90s. Take some intense death metal, black metal, with the most Satanic lyrics ever born, and five musicians with immense tightness and you get with "The Goat of Mendes". ‘Horns of Baphomet’ shows Akercocke’s full ability and talent, which is regurgitated in different formats and news ideas through out the rest of the album. Jason Mendonça sings like a pig being slaughtered, not really charming to your mother.
