Pyramidum is a black/death metal band from Quito, Ecuador, formed in 2022 and driven by themes of occultism, vitalism, and misanthropy. The band released their debut promo EP, El Halo del Sol, in 2023, which included three original tracks alongside a cover of Slayer's "Sex, Murder, Art."
Formed in Americana in 2017, Póstuma deals in Swedish-influenced melodic death metal built around the powerful clean and harsh vocal interplay of singer Bia da Aldea and the twin-guitar work of Rodrigo Batista and Júlio Alves. Their 2020 debut EP "Moralis" draws thematically on Greek mythology and philosophy, channeling the spirit of early In Flames and At the Gates into four tightly constructed tracks that balance aggressiveness with melody.
A recently formed São Paulo outfit fusing raw black metal with crust punk, Pöstvmö operates from an openly antifascist political stance and has deliberately built a racially and gender-diverse lineup in a scene that has historically lacked both. The band connects the underground extreme metal world with vegan and straight-edge communities, bringing a confrontational DIY ethos to their bleak, abrasive sound.
Pútrido is a grindcore band from Mauá, São Paulo, formed by guitarist and vocalist Bruno Teixeira of Desalmado alongside vocalist Carlos Silvério and drummer Anderson Leonardo, both from Aftermath. Their debut EP Justiça? — seven tracks across 13 minutes — was released on February 10, 2023 after years of interrupted recordings, with all production handled in studios within Mauá.
