Papangu João Pessoa, Brazil
A heavy and heady group hailing from the easternmost point of the Americas. Formed in 2012, Papangu blends its penchant for the unknown with memorable riffs and the rhythmic vibrancy of Brazilian music.
Papangu recommends:
Disco Normal (2023: 4th Full Length)
by Test
Test have deconstructed grindcore and reassembled it as a genuine, unique chimera. They're also Brazil's hardest working band (the only band in existence to have played in every Brazilian state).

City of the Sun
by Seven Impale
Probably the greatest prog rock debut of the 2010s, this no-bullshit record is Van der Graaf Generator by way of Meshuggah and Tool. Also features the wonderful Benjamin Mekki Widerøe on sax!

Ordo Dracul Demo
by Dead Neanderthals
Fantastic doomy dungeon synth from the Netherlands' most uncompromising duo. Don't miss out on their discography.

El día en que Lemos soltó la guitarra eléctrica y el bombo de batería, y reemplazó la frialdad del amplificador por el surdo, el afoxé y el reco-reco, fue el momento para que el imperio de la distorsión, tan esperable en el black metal, cediera el paso a la calidez acústica y la franqueza. Todo el Inpariquipê está urdido por una brillante vitalidad que apuesta por aquello inmenso, trascendental al humano, ¡con tal fulgor debería vivirse!
