Caldo de Cabeza - Basura Humana (full album, 2023)
youtube
I'm sure you all love our frequent eclectic and experimental uploads, but come on, admit it, you also like tupa tupa stuff don't you? Caldo De Cabeza have got you covered then, with their old school take on caveman drumming-chunky riffs-barks and shrieks grind assault. Reminiscent of a rawer Nasum, the grindier phases of later Ratos De Porao or even hints of Apartment 213 with lyrics inspired by the dire political situation in their native Chile and the general mess we've made of earth, CdC are just what the doctor ordered for a nice, crusty break from the surrounding holiday consumerism and fake cheer. Ho ho ho we're all fucked, etc.
