Arka'n Asrafokor is a Togolese heavy metal band from Lomé, formed in the mid-2010s by vocalist, guitarist and main songwriter Kodzo "Rock" Ahavi. Dubbed "Togo's only metal band", they play a blend of various sub-genres of heavy metal with traditional Togolese music and African percussion.

The band evolved from a musical project that Ahavi had formed around 2010; its current line-up was established in 2015–16 with the addition of four members including his brother. Together, the quintet has released two albums so far and has toured both Africa and Europe.
