For more than 35 years, Masacre have been among the most championed bands in the Medellin, Colombia Death Metal underground.
After releasing several demos in the late 1980's the band focused its sound into the cataclysmic masterpiece known as "Ola De Violencia".
This EP, recorded and released by the band in 1991 has for decades stood as a powerful testament to the potential for the oppressive darkness and massive power inherent in Death Metal, revealing Masacre's penchant for devastating and brooding riffs infused with melancholic passages that accentuate the morose atmosphere the band captures.
Without warning, however, Masacre frequently erupts into violent blasts of evil, unleashing torrents of hate and aggression heralding the arrival of the more sinister Black Metal sound that was then beginning to cast its shadow across the metal underground.
"Ola De Violencia" was far ahead of its time when it was released, but initially was almost unknown outside of Colombia until Osmose Productions reissued the tracks on a split with Profanatica in 1992, and coming now with bonus tracks in this remastered version!
Remastered version with bonus tracks:
Termonuclear (2:34), Los Pecados del Dios (1:43), Brutales Masacres (live) (5:05) & Ola de Violencia (live) (3:57).
