Baraka was a thrash/death metal band from Sydney. The band formed in 1998 with an early line-up that included McMahon and Maloney on both bass and vocals, plus guitarists Jonathon Talan and James Zulic. Their style was influenced by popular Sydney metal acts like [[Cryogenic]] and [[Segression]] but over time Baraka became more aligned to the death metal style. The band released two demos/EPs and played live often but in 2002 Baraka decided to take a break to write and consolidate its direction.
