Catanduva, BR · 2023–present · active
Black metal and grindcore band from Catanduva, in the interior of São Paulo state, formed in 2023. The name translates to Three Skulls and reflects the band's penchant for stripped-down extremity at the intersection of raw black metal aggression and the blunt force of grindcore. As a new entry in the Brazilian underground with no Spotify presence, they operate in the DIY cassette and Bandcamp space that sustains much of the country's extreme metal underground.
