Akercocke - Goat Of Mendes The

Facts Reissue. The Goat of Mendes was originally released in 2001 and drew considerable attention in both the underground and more mainstream metal worlds. The band quickly rose to the top of the British extreme metal scene, largely thanks to their captivating and intense live performances, including a series of shows with Swedish band Katatonia. The band continued to find success with subsequent albums, until Akercocke finally disbanded after their last release in 2007. David Gray then went on to form the band Voices, and also spent some time playing with My Dying Bride.
