Death Metal straight from the mountains of Bogota.
Therapy for Pain unveils DOOMED.
With former members of Neurosis Inc (Col) & Eutanasia, the project has 8 tracks that may deviate from the established forms of making Death Metal and bringing elements from industrial, black, and groove metal.
Because we love METAL LATINO.
Grab DOOMED from our Bandcamp
There has been a gap between what the public defines as avant-garde music and what actually has been published by the bands.
Without any doubt the last 4 years there has been a huge increase of high quality metal albums from all over the globe, and obviously thanks to the digital era, Latin Bands are also releasing more albums than ever, that being said, most of the bands grab a familiar approach, that leaves room for other projects to explore what it should be defined as “metal latino”.
Therapy for Pain returns after a 5 year hiatus with a new Album called Hostile.
This time the project leaded by caballo approaches Grindcore, Death Metal and Hardcore and blends it with elements of grime, Breakcore and Industrial.
The album covers a specific pattern of how we all are active and passive players in the doom of our own society by engaging in inaction will promoting the opposite in the virtual/social media world.
Like Hipocresia
Borrego al Matadero reveals how many of us refuse to be a sheep of the system, to simply die everyday on the slaughterhouse in the pursue of paying bills while balancing a ‘happy and successful life’
All lyrics are in Spanish except Shove it which is a tribute to Deftones, with a twist, as you might understand in the lyrics, never ever satisfied, all the things are glorified, all I do is to collect, all I do is to pretend…

If you like any of these genres: metal, death metal, grime, metal latino, metaLatino, grind, hardcore, Black Metal, then!!!!! this is for you!!!
Mercado Negro is the second #metaLatino project from Latino Resiste.
This time an ensemble with musicians from Argentina, Germany, Canada and Colombia get together to combine all the ferocity of the metalmedallo musical aesthetic with the aggression of Swedish death metal of the 90’s without losing the compass of originality in terms of Latin Metal of late 2010’s should sound like.
Heavily influenced by the sound of Puya’s Whisker Biscuit, Sepultura’s beneath the remains, or Reencarnacion’s 888metal as well as the likes of At the gates, Entombed, Unleashed or Asesino; Mercado Negro combines dirty guitars and unpolished hard/grindcore vocals with clean massive drums and bass to unveil a debut EP called PERPETUA PENITENCIA.
You can download it for #zeropesos (FREE!) in whichever format you want.
MP3 > Download Link (only 53MB!!!!!)
Or full WAV, Aiff, HDMP3 directly via Bandcamp as well as individual tracks should you prefer.
The main single is Move it,
Although this 6 track EP opens with Ebrio de Poder which brings Brazilian percussion meeting 90’s thrash with a bold statement for those who are in power, not only in the political field but also in corporation levels.
Perpetua Penitencia is the EP Title as well as the statement towards how society believes Money and “connections” are the goals the maintain oneself on top of the pyramid regardless of the personal or spiritual consequences.
Vibora Rastrera is a pure blast of hardcore with clean guitars breaks that criticize all the fake friends whose evil spirit only want to diminish ones achievements if these do not benefit them personally.
Piel de Oveja is a heavy reference to Puya’s Whisker Biscuit in terms of music, while lyrically is a call for action to unveil those wolves who camouflage under sheep’s clothes to disguise their real intentions which are the profit from our desires and dreams, whether we are pure resilient or heavily into consumerism, the wolves have a market that will fit any merchandise you need, a che-guevara pin, or a bob marley hat to a super exclusive 1 million dollar watch, it doesn’t matter which part of society you play, there is going to be a wolf ready to eat your money.
Last but never least a rendition to one of the most symbolic songs from the most well known Latin American metal band in history.
Some Quotes about the release:
” Mercado Negro thrashes like the bastard child of Sepultura and Brujeria. Perpetua Penitencia is the most fun and also the most genuinely vicious debut metal release I’ve heard in ages” B. Bryan (Noisey, MTV)
“Mercado Negro me transporta en el tiempo a mitad/finales de los noventa con una música con una base en ritmos con bastante groove y un feeling de despertar latino. Mientras que temas como Vibora Rastrera o Perpetua Penitencia se quedan un poquito cortos en producción y tienen mas un sonido de demo el tema Move It suena con una produccion mucha mas cuidada y con un desarrollo vocal bastante elaborado que me recuerda a lo mejor de Skindred. Suena increible ese tema!!!
En general muy bien y bastante nostálgico.” Kike Valderrama (Headcrusher, Sol de Sangre)
“Tiene el sello Latino Resiste… Eso es garantía de sabor latino. Es un extraño viaje al pasado con sonido moderno. Creería que tiene lo mejor del mundo del metal latino con retazos de metal europeo. A veces no se si bailar o cabecear” Viejo Jaymz (Creador 4eedc Fest, Metal Host, 4eedc mastermind)

En esta edicion de metaLatino queremos retomar parte de la iniciativa que es poner en perspectiva no solo bandas relevantes en la escena latinoamericana, sino tambien poner el contexto a algunos protagonista que estan adicionando el sabor latino a sus respectivos proyectos.
Es asi como el capitulo parte desde Ecuador con Muscaria.
Desde Argentina Faxion, y aca estan los links de las entrevistas con Andreas Kisser, guitarrista de Sepultura y De La tierra.
Ademas de la entrevista con David McGraw, chileno baterista de Cattle Decapitation.
Y algo muy interesante es lo que propone la agrupacion brasilera Claustrofobia, quienes exponen su vision sobre lo que hizo el gobierno Brasilero en terminos de limpieza social, despilfarro presupuestal y corrupcion en la ante sala al mundial, que termino siendo un fiasco.
Sobra decir, que acabando la copa America, y el escandalo mediatico y siempre las teorias de conspiracion que Chile tenia arreglado la final, no ayuda a limpiar el ya manchado honor de todas las asociaciones del continente.
Independientemente de los resultados, y ganadores o perdedores, es cierto que como metaleros mas que cualquier otro genero musical, es muy importante exponer las hipocrecias sociales y mediaticas en las que vivimos.
De fondo, el track: Libre de la agrupacion Argentina, LEECHMASTER, que salio para descarga libre via latino resiste

LATINO RESISTE presenta RADICAL.
Un compilado con lo mas eclectico de las tendencias agresivas Suramericanas.

Pero que es Radical? Radical significa que afecta la raiz.
El compilado como su nombre lo indica, es RADICAL; tiene dentro musica que definitivamente encaja en ese adjetivo, pero ademas es una caja de pandora donde el que la abre tambien puede re definir su concepto de radicalismo.
Sinergia, Cuentos de los Hermanos Grind, Circus Circus, Compadres Recerdos, entre muchos mas nos llevan por un recorrido extremo en las tangentes mas eclecticas del metal. Sin perder la identidad latina, ni el sonido agresivo.
Somos concientes que el compilado sera polemico y en cierta manera incomprendido por falta de contexto.
Varios posibles escenarios para quien oye el compilado son, primero: Que piense que es algo gracioso y/o que no le guste porque no es su tendencia.
Sin embargo, esa persona pide a empresarios y gobierno que lleven buen metal a su ciudad, y se queja de la falta de apoyo al metal.
Para ese tipo de persona es este compilado.
Para que comprenda que solo cuando se genera identidad COLECTIVA latina, y cultural es posible cambiar el curso del presente, para tener un futuro cohesivo.
Si, existen letras “chistosas” dentro del compilado. Sin embargo el humor es una manera de hacer entender un acto puntual y referente social. ( lease voto latino de Molotov)
Segundo Posible escenario:
Que le gusten unas cosas pero no otras. Es lo ideal, que evalue su criterio.
Que expanda el horizonte sonoro, pero sobretodo, que tenga argumentos validos, y referencias claras, tanto en contenido lirico, como musical, para que cuando algun festival diga que se hizo lo posible por tener “diversidad”, existan pruebas donde se verifique que SI HAY PROPUESTAS DIVERSAS, que estan musicalmente bien producidas, que sus miembros tienen trayectoria en escenario, que mantienen una identidad latina y que mantienen, independientemente de su tendencia, una VISIBLE influencia de rock y/o metal.
Otro posible escenario: Que quien lo escuche le parezca una falta de respeto con “el rock” y el “metal”.
Ahi vamos a ser absurdamente claros sobre tres cosas: Identidad, Hecho y Criterio.
Esto suena latino. No sueco. No Gringo. Latino. Simple.
Falta de respeto hacia el oyente:
Es ahi donde el contenido lirico es importante.
Y es ahi donde entra a prevalecer el hecho VS el criterio.
Las letras de sinergia son fulminantes y estructuradas, sin embargo alguien podria decir que su musica no.
Cuentos de los hermanos Grind, es devastador; sin embargo sus letras son un acto permanente de sarcasmo.
Inclusive EN VIVO son contundentes pero es inevitable no tener una sonrisa cuando uno ve al guitarrista de la mascara de lucha.
Vealo ud mismo
Cada cual ve la agresividad desde diferentes perspectivas.
Para esas perspectivas es este compilado.
El escenario ideal es que quien lo baje, lo escuche atento.
Entienda que las tendencias agresivas, se alimentan tambien de otros generos, y que siempre existen tangentes donde estos convergen. Este es un recorrido a esas tangentes.
Cuando hablamos con metaleros suecos, daneses, canadienses, alemanes, polacos, y gringos, y decimos que hacemos metal “latino” .. ellos esperan no escuchar una copia de su propio sonido. Algo autentico, algo real. Algo con identidad, en castellano. Ellos oiran esto, sin el prejuicio, como nosotros oimos lo de ellos, sin darnos cuenta que el metal es el genero de los marginados sociales, los “white trash”, los radicales.
No caigamos en la falsa esperanza de sonar internacional, cuando no apoyamos lo propio. Lo latino. Lo Pesado. Independientemente de un gusto personal. Aca estamos apoyando lo mismo, somos (metaleros) nosotros contra nosotros mismos, O somos una escena que se ayuda mutuamente.

Latino Resiste Presents METAL LATINO
DIRECT DOWNLOAD
This is a work that has taken us more than 8 months, gathering and checking production styles, subgenres, countries, and “creative” skills. But the most important part is that we want to achieve something more important:
TO UNITE METALHEADS FROM THE WHOLE CONTINENT UNDER ONE ROOF, ONE PHILOSOPHY, UNIDAD LATINA!!
There were two main factors why we decided to do this: even though Metal is huge by itself in their own underground scene, rarely Latino Bands make it outside their own countries, and second, there is a “radicalism” between elitists who barely listen different genres except their own tastes.
Having those factors in mind, we started a selection process from Bands from all over the Continent, From Argentina, to Canada, we travelled and listened to hundreds of bands, each one great at their own, so the selection process was very hard.
Our first pick was Dia de los Muertos.
Because it had everything we needed, great production, amazing sound, but overall, a pure Latino sound: including A FEMALE VOCALIST!!
Our selection included Carcass’ singer (Jeff Walker) huge Collaboration with Dia de los Muertos, but then we changed it to one that we felt could fit better, MALDITO X (from Asesino, Static x) drops his style in SIGO SIENDO EL REY.
Starting the compilation with a song that is THAT strong, we knew we where going thru the right path.
Metal Latino drops 21 tracks, each one represents a whole trend, a whole movement behind, not only the subgenre, but also the effort, production and passion from the bands.
We will drop the info about those 21 indeed, (bottom part of the post) Although some of those MUST BE HIGHLIGHTED, as they represent what Latino Resiste is about. Gathering together well known and unknown people; towards one identity: LATINO UNITY.
Puya/Ankla founder Ramon Ortiz, decided to unveil his very own and unreleased track Resake, a song that blends brutality, virtuosity, and latino roots.
Eutanasia, the iconic band that had almost a two decades hiatus, comes back to unleash all the aggression from 90s thrash death with a 2012 sound.
Colombian Headcrusher , Mexican Here Comes the Kraken, and Chilean Nuclear are here to prove why they are ahead of the game in their own terms.
But the real highlights are the unknown for many, these bands which have to sacrifice their own savings to record. Some have only a computer and a cracked recording software, and still can compete with well known acts.
This is also something we want to be truthful. You will hear all the production differences as is.
A unique approach that keeps Metal for the masses, and elitists.
Experience the whole compilation, and then share it.

METAL LATINO reveals regardless grindcore, black metal, Nu Metal, Thrash, Hardcore, Death, Deathcore, Fusion, or whatever style you find in the compilation, We (Latinos) have a lot to be proud, a lot to still discover between our own continent, a lot of bands to support, either LIVE or RELEASES, and especially.. We sound as good (many times even better) as American/European bands.
The reason why we haven’t reached further, might be between us. Let’s all unite. Latino Resiste!

whose style brought an incredible fresh vibe to the Metal Scene, by avoiding the stereotypical “calavera” while keeping it dark
Inside the album you will find Two Wallpapers (click to enlarge)
Now this is How Metal Latino was created:
In August 2011 Latino Resiste opened the spot for a new compilation.
And we had to get in touch with Alfonso Pinzon, who is one of the most relevant Metal Heads in the US scene, whose label Cinismo Records has dropped some of the most wicked discographies.

Puya/Ankla founder Ramon Ortiz, is perhaps, the biggest addition in terms of “name” to the compilation, an amazing artist whose bands have been headliners in ozzfest and working with oscar/grammy winner Gustavo Santaolalla among more great achivements, but at the same time humble enough to drop not one, but two tracks, and even greater, an UNRELEASED track
