In 2007, the band rebranded as Akaname (\u201cfilth licker\u201d in Japanese) to avoid confusion with all the other Gomorrahs. Based in Wellington, Akaname played across the punk, metal, and hardcore scenes, sharing stages with acts like Schifosi (Melbourne), Saving Grace, Backyard Burial, Drug Problem, and Ulcerate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;autoclose&quot;: false, &quot;accordionItems&quot;: [] }\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/accordion\" role=\"group\" class=\"wp-block-accordion is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-is-layout-flow\">\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-1&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-1-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" id=\"accordion-item-1\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">Read more<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-1\" data-wp-bind--hidden=\"state.isHidden\" data-wp-on--beforematch=\"actions.handleBeforeMatch\" id=\"accordion-item-1-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">The band\u2019s early years culminated in their 2007 recording session at Trident Studios, where they produced the <em>Filthlicker EP<\/em>, a five-track release distributed by US-based Debello Recordings. In 2008, Akaname relocated to Melbourne, Australia, and underwent a significant transformation after parting ways with vocalist Kallie, shifting to an instrumental-only atmospheric metal sound. This new direction debuted with the EP <em>As Above\/ So Below<\/em> in August 2009. Later that year, they returned to New Zealand as the support act for US deathcore band Winds Of Plague.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">Back in Melbourne, Akaname recorded their self-titled full-length album at Antiverse Studios in Brunswick. Released on July 1, 2010, the album showcased their evolved style, blending \u201cspacetime-warping technicality and full-frontal riffery\u201d with \u201cgeometric grooves, hyper-atmospheric washes, and subliminal textural layers.\u201d A New Zealand tour followed, hitting Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch. However, mid-2010 saw the band enter hibernation as drummer Otis Chamberlain stepped away temporarily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">Akaname re-emerged in 2011 when Ben, Matt Payne, and Matt Faisandier recorded the track \u201cRain Will Be The New Gold\u201d at Weighing The Earth studio in Melbourne, with Jamie Saint Merat of Ulcerate contributing drums from Auckland. This track was released in 2012 as a 7\u201d split with Seattle\u2019s \u201cLesbian\u2019s Fungal Abyss\u201d via Irish label Hell Comes Home. In 2015, Otis and Matt Faisandier explored new territory with their side-project Ornithologist, a \u201cpseudo-electro bird-grind duet\u201d celebrating avian themes through riffs and drum sequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">By 2024, all four members of Akaname had reunited in Wellington, New Zealand, sparking rumors of a new recording in development.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Add To This Post<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:15px\">To contribute info, photos, corrections contact mail@upthepunks.co.nz<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\" style=\"font-size:16px\"><table><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Origin<\/strong><\/td><td>Wellington<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Genre<\/strong><\/td><td>post-metal<br>experimental<br>grindcore, <br>post-hardcore<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Years Active<\/strong><\/td><td>2005 &#8211;
