Patrick Leagas is a British musician.[1] Leagas was a founding member of Death In June. After leaving Death In June in 1985[2] during a tour in Italy, Leagas formed Sixth Comm in 1986 and began working under the name Patrick O-Kill. Sixth Comm frequently collaborated with the Dutch neopagan Freya Aswynn and expressed neopagan themes.[3] Leagas later met vocalist Amodali at a Liverpool club in 1989.[2] The two collaborated extensively in the 1990s as Mother Destruction, which released five albums with pagan themes and influences from electronic dance music. After this, Leagas left music for a period of time when he focused on family life and lived abroad. He returned to music with a double album with Sixth Comm in 2006.[4]
