The name Pakeni is a pun on Carcass. The word "carcass" sounds like the Finnish word karkas, which is the past tense of the verb karata ("to escape") in spoken language. The verb paeta is a synonym for karata, and its past tense is pakeni.
The band began as a Carcass-like death/grind band, but started to evolve in a groovy death 'n' roll direction on the second demo, following the footsteps of Xysma and incorporating lots of experimental elements into their music.
