A one-man brutal death metal project that unleashed three full-lengths in quick succession during early 2023, including "Appearance Repugnant," "Overwhelmed By Parasitic Lifeforms," and "The Dead Hungers." The project leans into a relentlessly dense, suffocating sound with an emphasis on inhuman speed and grotesque atmosphere.
Brutal death metal outfit that channels raw fury at war, corruption, and social injustice through punishing low-end riffs and blast-driven aggression, as heard on their 2013 release "Mundo Perverso." Their sound sits firmly in the crushing São Paulo underground tradition, with little room for melody between the punishment.
Pesto coined the term "culinary grindcore" for their particular strain of brutal death metal and grindcore, built around grotesque gastronomic and cannibal lyrical themes. The trio of Diego Firmo, Diego Andrade, and Marcio Barbosa debuted with an EP that included a music video for the track "Cutting Corpse," establishing a darkly comedic identity within extreme metal.
Putrid Impetus is a brutal death metal band from São Paulo with lyrical themes centered on pathology, disease, and gore. Their debut album Fatal Necrotic Ecstasy was released on February 15, 2025 through Rotten Foetus Records as an eight-track, eight-page-booklet CD.

Rekt is a brutal death metal and goregrind act from Berisso, Argentina, whose members recorded under the handles copromauro (vocals), felipe (bass), fede (drums), and domusmono (guitars).

The band split up after the release.
Repulsive Humanity is a brutal death metal band from Valparaíso, Chile, formed in 2022. The trio released their debut EP "Purge the Grotesque Consequences of Humanity" in 2024 and contributed the track "Horrendous Visceral Deformity" to a "Sick Musik to Your Guts" compilation the same year. Their lyrical themes focus on gore, torture, and suffering.
Brutal death metal and grindcore band from Salvador, Bahia, formed in 2009 under the name Gutrender before adopting their current name. The lineup of Caio Rohr on vocals, Diego Fleischer on guitar, Derick Alcântara on bass, and Márcio Jordanne on drums released the mini-CD Execrate in 2009 and the full-length Misbegotten in 2014, both centering on gore-themed lyrics. Their later material appeared on Guttural Brutality Productions, including the album Intense Sensations in Self Mutilation.
