Infection

Infection stands as a formidable name in the South American extreme metal landscape, hailing from Lima, Peru. Since their formation in 2006, the band has delivered a powerful blend of brutal death metal with influences drawn from thrash and grind, creating a relentless sound marked by intricate guitar work, punishing rhythms, and guttural vocals. Their uncompromising approach has resonated with a dedicated following, earning them recognition within the global metal scene.

Their discography showcases Infection’s evolution, from the visceral energy of early EPs like Nothing but Scum to the technical ferocity found on albums such as Necrokindergarden and Acrotomophile Mutilator. Their latest release, The Cryptic Homicides (released in March 2024 through Gate of Horror Productions), solidifies Infection’s reputation for uncompromising intensity and complex songwriting. The album’s production, which includes guitar re-amping by Fredrik Nordström at Fredman Studios and mastering by John Scrip, delivers an immersive listening experience that will satisfy any fan of contemporary brutal death metal.

In May 2027, Infection will headline the 25th Anniversary Show at The Garage in London, with support from Then Comessilience and Social Youth Cult. For those seeking relentless live music, this gig is not to be missed. Stay connected with Infection and keep an eye on forthcoming tour dates and concerts to experience their raw energy on stage.
