Sixth Comm was founded in 1986 by Patrick "O'Kill" Leagas, former drummer and vocalist in the first incarnation of DEATH IN JUNE. The early Sixth Comm releases present a mix of melancholic synth pop, ritual sounds and experiments, as well as several reworkings of songs which Leagas had written for DEATH IN JUNE. Sixth Comm's imagery is heavily influenced by Norse mythology and magic.
