Additional notes
Former bassist Matt Wilcock left the band so that he could emigrate from Australia and move to the UK in search of a more established metal scene. Not long after arriving in the UK, he was announced as Akercocke's replacement for the recently departed Paul Scanlan.
Rumours abound about whether or not The Drummer held or broke the Guinness World Record for being the fastest drummer, but this was pure fabrication on the part of internet users. Not only was there no proof of him reaching the alleged speeds (19 bps per hand), but even if he had done them, without an adjudicator the record wouldn't have stood anyway.
The Berzerker gained it's record deal after impressing Earache so much with a number of remixes of bands such as Morbid Angel which the label had asked Luke Kenny to do that they offered him a two-album deal.
The remaining members of the band are currently working on the band's third full-length album.
