With first album ’Tlazcaltiliztli’, Tzompantli called forth a penetrating strike of Death and Doom Metal like a poisoned arrow through the heart. The band’s foundation in Indigenous / Native rituals, history and lore, and merging of traditional instruments into their sound made for one of 2022’s most uniquely voiced metal records.
Now Tzompantli have again been summoned from the smoke of the ancient fires with a new offering at the altar of human sacrifice, ‘Beating the Drums of Ancestral Force’. Fearsomely brutal marches of war-like, percussive Death Metal are contrasted with melancholy passages of longing spirit and entrancing ceremonial invocations to the ancestors. The Tzompantli tribe has greatly expanded on this second album with 10+ musicians enlisted in the conjuring of wrathful deities and collection of invader skulls.
There has been no shortage of fantastic Death/Doom records in recent years and Tzompantli’s latest entry in the genre’s pantheon demonstrates its continued expansion into wider musical and thematic arenas. The anguished fortitude at the heart of ‘Beating The Drums of Ancestral Force’ exalts in the blood and ash of empire and would be conquerors, a fiery lamentation to centuries of erasure.

19:55 when I have a landslide victory in a competitive game
Solid, can't wait for my pre-ordered copy so that all of my neighbours can hear it too
It's like Nile for Mexico
I cannot prove this, but I think the Aztecs would have approved.
The death whistle in the beginning was sick.
An absolute masterpiece to add in every death metal collection. I think I like it even more than the previous record. Cheers from France !
Mexico?
Very good work
Southern brazilian hails
This makes the caveman in my brain happy
Cheers from Nepal 🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵 metalhead ✊✊
Why nobody is talking about that sick cover art and logo?

With Jungle sounds, deeply sounds 🦉
Absolute barn burner. Aaaawough awough, awough!!!
Great and powerfull sound, greetings from México
Tlaloc Icuic is so sick, god what a cool band

Crushing spiritual journey.

That last song gave me goosebumps 🔥
Amazing material! Definitely going to see this band live!
That was pretty fucking dope.
Keep up the Good Work! 🔥 Album!!!
This is fire 🔥🤘
Huge
Nile and Brujeria had a baby in the depths of despair
🔥🔥🔥
Solid album boys 🔨🔨 I gotta pick Chichimecatl as my fav track. 🔥
Fantastic album!
So good!!!👌
Solos w the Ripping Corpse Vibes hell yeah
Can't wait to give it a spin when my copy gets here. Boy, my roommates are going to kill me
Mexican Nile
Ripping!!!!!
New to me and this is blowing me away!
What sweet brutality 🤘
in love de esta cosa hermosaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
let's gooooo
Ahhhhh yeah, I heard a few song like a month ago and it was sweet.
Perfection.
Foda demais.
Prehispanic Death / Doom, crushing stuff. 💀
Tzompantli fuc...rules! 🤘
Been waiting for this one😍🤘
Zajebisty album.
awesome 🖤💀
Ok, this is something else.
Very varied and well balanced. I've heard Nile, Soulfly, Spectral Voice and even some Enslaved on this album, and that is good thing in my book.
But it is of course, its own thing, well produced and executed.
Not to mention the rarely explored theme + the awesomeness of the cover art.
Track three is that a fucking Chihuahua in the background? This album is sick as hell, hits the same spot as old Nile, brutal as fuck
This would make playing Ocelotl in For Honor a lot more fun
Fubar!
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
RIFFS
Potential AOTY
Last track reminds me of MSW Obliviosus
Bro I got the Salvador flag vinyl. On my grandma this slays so hard
Pretty good
💚🤍❤️ Finally: it’s here. And it is as great and brutal as expected. Another 20 Buck Spin gem this year!
Stacking this next to Brujeria
Yay
Destined to be one of the death metal albums of the year. This is astonishing death doom with a lot of percussion elements and tribal vibes. I will review it soon on my channel RAGE REVIEWS
this is death/doom that hits like hardcore. I love it, and I love its atmospheric parts too. Really cool album.
🤟🏻❤️🤟🏻
This sounds very similar to the Japanese Death/Doom metal band Coffins.
AOTY contender
Sudden urge to watch Apocalypto
A return to the eve of all that's heavy and brutal
💀🤘
It's the best thing to happened to metal since the creation of cheese
Wait.. There's like 11 members? 🤔
AZTEC death metal :D
In the words of DJ Khaled: ANOTHER ONE!
Maya band?
AOTY - I hate that fucking term!
Монотонно,примитивно,безыдейно.зацепили народ необычными этническими фишками,которые не свойственны данному стилю.Как sepyltyra в свое время в их стиле,но те играть точно умели.
how tf do you say that shit?????
Quetzalcóatl would be proud
🔥🔥🔥
