MASACRE (col) + GOAT SEMEN (peru) – “South American Hell”!!!
We are ecstatic to bring you Colombian death metal legends MASACRE for their first European tour in their history! Following their gig at Inferno Festival in April we'll be taking Masacre on the road with Peruvian maniacs GOAT SEMEN for what promises to be one of the most chiiimba bills this side of the equator... a package so rare that it hasn't even happened in South America!

MASACRE was formed in 1988 in Medellín, Colombia during the height of the narco-wars and spearheaded a movement that became known as Ultra Metal Medallo.
After a series of visceral demos, the band exploded across the Latin world and earned a reputation with tape-traders in the West. They achieved international acclaim with their debut album Requiem (1991) and Tormenting Holy Flesh / Ola de Violencia (1992), a split-release with black metal legends Profanatica – both on Osmose Productions.
Masacre conquered Latin America with its albums Sacro (1996), Muerte Verdadura Muerte (2001) and Total Death (2004), but it was not until the release of Brutal Aggre666ion in 2014 that the band would perform abroad. A series of rare appearances at Maryland Deathfest, 70000 Tons of Metal, Destroying Texas and Nuclear War Now in North America have finally brought Masacre to Europe.
Much like the name, GOAT SEMEN is one of the most extreme bands in living memory.
Formed in Lima, Peru in 2000 Goat Semen would quickly become one of South America’s most coveted metal exports with the universally praised Devotos del Diablo, a split release with Anal Vomit.
The band’s sound is as much a product of its influences as its surroundings. The ‘Warfare Noise’ of bands like Sarcofago, Holocausto and Chakal would combine with Blasphemy, Beherit and Hellhammer to channel the realities of growing up in the middle of a violent civil war. The incessant battery, the lacerating guitars, bomb sirens and rabid wails of vocalist Erick Neyra create a sense of shellshock and authenticity unmatched by other bands in their genre.
By the release of Goat Semen’s debut Ego Sum Satana in 2015, the band was already legendary in underground circles and was quickly signed by US label Hell’s Headbangers. After performing at Finland’s Black Flames of Blasphemy in 2015, the band embarked on a headlining European tour four years later.
