REVIEW 'TOTAL DEATH' BY Eye of Shiva
Have you heard of the Colombian Death Metal legend, Masacre? They're on the road since 1988 and have released many demos, compilations and a split. Now they're releasing their forth full length album... more

REVIEW 'TOTAL DEATH' BY Live 4 Metal (James Young)
Total Death’ is the fifth real album from Masacre (before the more pedantic of you ask, there is only one ‘s’ - they’re Columbian), amongst several other demos and mini albums recorded in the band’s seventeen year existence, and it is, by any Death Metal standards, a corker... more

REVIEW 'TOTAL DEATH' BY Metal Reviews (Jason Jordan)
Brutal death metal incumbents Masacre have returned to office for the first time in many years, and Total Death is quite an accomplishment. But, as is the case with their Xtreem Music (great label with a less-than-great moniker) peers, the originality factor tends to play an insignificant role while songwriting, musicianship, and downright punishing instrumentation occupy the forefront... more

MASACRE & NEUROSIS IN BOGOTA

REVIEW 'TOTAL DEATH' BY Voices from the Darkside
It doesn't really matter if you like 'em or not, but you definitely gotta respect a band that's been around for 17 years already and never sold out to the mainstream! Colombia's very own MASACRE (not to be mixed up with the Florida bunch that gets spelled with a double "s") is one of those bands... more

MASACRE finished the recording of their new CD "Total Death". It was done at Sirio Studios in Bogota City between March the 31st and April the 19th. The band is so satisfied with the quality achieved because it reaches all the expectations the band had and gives all the professional quality all of our fans deserve. The sound is better than the previous and excellent "Muerte Verdadera Muerte" and goes farther in our musical approach as a more brutal and devastating Death Metal, clearly defined by the title of the album "Total Death". The next step will be mixing and mastering the CD by a well-known musician and producer of the Death Metal scene of the world to achieve the best sound posible. We hope the CD will be out in August or September and the fans could get this Death Metal piece at the stores. You could see some pictures of the recording session at the photos section in this web site.

Death Metal forever
