As Hasta La Muerte, the second LP from Southern Cali breakdown warriors XIBABLA, nears release, the North American street date now just one week away. In anticipation of the album’s disbursement, and as the unit prepare to embark on tour in support of the mammoth LP later this week, today Brooklyn Vegan is streaming all of Hasta La Muerte. Test the durability of your office furniture by busting out a wicked statgedive in the workplace to the record’s eleven devastating tales.
Taking their down-tuned assault to iniquitous new dimensions, XIBALBA’s breakdowns hit with the force of tsunamis and their riffs like mires of quicksand on Hasta La Muerte, the band’s intense style infusing some of the most Doom-ridden tones one will experience within the Hardcore genre with unstoppable force. Recorded by Taylor Young (of labelmates Nails), and sought out renowned Death Metal artist Dan Seagrave (Dismember, Entombed, Morbid Angel, Suffocation, etc.) to craft the foreboding cover art.
Hasta La Muerte will hit the streets via Southern Lord Records on August 14th in North America, just four days into their month-long North American tour with Alpha & Omega as well as labelmates Power Trip for most of the trek. The action begins at The Power Of The Riff West in Los Angeles this Saturday, August 11th and includes another performance at the first installment of The Power Of The Riff East in Brooklyn on September 1st.
Check out full live sets and more XIBALBA mayhem AT THIS LOCATION.
