Bio
Formed in Hampshire UK 2006, this five piece (originally four piece) band came together and wrote, recorded and released their first demo in June 2006. Since then they have played a countless amount of shows in the UK with bands including Cilice (nl), Tesseract, No Made Sense and Pure Negative.

About
Although as busy as they are, they had many line up changes with bass players and second guitarists. In November 2007 the line up was finally complete with members Russ Weller(vocals), Alex Loader(guitar), Jon Hughes(guitar), Rob Houghton(bass) and Paul Roebuck(drums). Coming straight from the shadows of Portsmouth, with solid beats, thrashing guitars and crushing vocals. They are Akakios!
Their name taken from ancient Greek meaning "Innocent, Not Evil", combined with kakn (kake) meaning "evil", Akakios is a negative prefix. Showing that even though as evil as they may seem, they, are not!
* Akakios's musical material, music videos, album art, and web designs are all created, produced and released by the band themselves. *
