A dark, melodic death metal band from Melbourne, BE LAKOR has quickly come to be regarded as one of Australias more promising and creative metal acts.

Two years have passed since the independent release of their debut, The Frail Tide. In this time, the bands international reputation has grown rapidly on the back of high acclaim from reviewers and a dedicated and ever-growing fan base. Drawing influences from the natural world and the perpetual struggle between destruction and life, Be lakor creates songs that take the listener on a compelling journey.

Their highly anticipated second album, Stones Reach, is set for release on June 20, 2009. Be lakor will be venturing across Australia for the first time, taking in performances in Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane & Sydney.
