REVIEW: Infernal - Ritual Humiliation Jethro Songs, 2001
6.5/10
Infernal - Ritual Humiliation - cover art Infernal was there when the underground death metal scene in Brazil began to form into shape in the mid-80's with bands like Sarcófago and Sepultura. The band formed in Curitiba in 1986 and in 1989 they released their first demo "The First Stage". This is a band that still stay true to their roots and on their latest album they deliver raging death metal in the old classic Florida vein. It's almost as if a little bit of nostalgia kicks in while listening to this violent piece of art from a world afar. I have never been to South America, in fact I haven't left the European continent yet, but I do know that metal is really doing great over there today. There are not that many bands from South America who have made it big in the metal scene since those early days but Infernal and others prove to us that Brazil still has a lot to offer if you are willing to look into the local scene. This is a quality release with great vocals that should definitely appeal to fans of classic American death metal. It does not offer anything new of course but it is well executed. These guys know what they are doing and they do it with skills close to perfection. Only recommended for fans of the first wave of American death metal bands but if that is your cup of tea you will certainly love Infernal.
