Akercocke is a British Death Metal band with influences from Black Metal, Progressive Rock, and Electronic music. Formed in 1997 in London, England by David Gray and Jason Mendonca, the band has gained attention for their controversial use of sexual and satanic imagery and themes.

Despite a period of hiatus, Akercocke surprised fans with a reunion in 2016. They released a new song titled 'Inner Sanctum' on YouTube and announced their first UK tour since reforming. Their new studio album 'Renaissance in Extremis' is set to be released in 2016, marking their first release in nine years.

With similarities to artists such as *Anaal Nathrakh*, *Melechesh*, and *Zyklon*, Akercocke continues to push boundaries within the metal genre while captivating audiences with their unique blend of influences.

Peaceville is an English label founded by Paul Halmshaw, also known as Hammy, in 1987. The label primarily focuses on metal music and has gained a reputation for its high-quality releases. In 2000, Peaceville was sold to Snapper Music but continues to thrive under their ownership.

Throughout its history, Peaceville has used various catalog number formats to distinguish different types of releases. From 1987 to 1995, the label used "VILE ### T" for 12-inch singles, maxis, and EPs; "VILE ###" for LPs; and "VILE ### P" for picture LPs. From 1987 to 2002, CD releases were labeled as "CDVILE### / VILE ### CD," while MCDs/singles/EPs were labeled as "CDMVILE### / VILE ### TCD." Limited CDs were marked with "CDXVILE###."

In later years, Peaceville introduced new catalog number formats such as "CC#" for the Collectors Club series of 7-inch records in 1993-1994. Re-issued CDs with slipcases from 1999 onwards are labeled as "CDVILEM###." Since 2002, CDs have been designated as "CDVILEF###," limited CDs as "CDVILEF###X," MCDs/singles/EPs as "CD

PEACEVILLE RELEASE THE 1999 DEBUT ALBUM FROM BRITISH DEATH METALLERS AKERCOCKE "The best death metal debut release ever released by a British band." ? Album of the Month - Terrorizer Akercocke spawned from London in early 1997 by friends David Gray and Jason Mendoca, who had both previously been in the underground Black Metal Band Salem Orchid. The ominous group of friends originally gained attention within the extreme metal scene through their infamous stage presence, iconic suits, and their intense satanic and psycho-sexual message. Two years later the band self-released what would become a highly regarded extreme metal classic; the provocatively titled 'Rape of the Bastard Nazarene', which achieved the much acclaimed 'Album of the Month' accolade from Terrorizer. An album of brutal blackened satanic death metal, 'Rape of the Bastard Nazarene' brings to mind the warped technicality of Vovoid & the ferocious storm of blasphemy of Deicide. Released on the band's own 'Goat of Mendes' label and with only local promotion, the album still received widespread acclaim within the press and the entire scene driven entirely by its own merit. In May 2016, the legendary UK metallers reformed and released a new demo of the track "Inner Sanctum". The band followed up by playing a string of summer festivals, including the main stage at Bloodstock, and a sold out headline UK tour in September. They are currently in the studio recording their new album 'Renaissance In Extremis' due for release in 2017. The band have also announced four new festival bookings for April and May in the UK and Maryland Deathfest on 28th May in the USA. Peaceville are releasing the 1999 essential debut album 'Rape of the Bastard Nazarene' as a CD presented in a digipack packaging complete with an 8-page booklet.
