One of the most renowned bands in Brazilian metal, TORTURE SQUAD, released the live album ‘Tortura en La Iglesia En Vivo’, with the unreleased single “The Fallen Ones”, with exclusive premiere on Decibel Magazine website. Now, the band releases another video clip recorded on the day of the show, of one of the most emblematic songs, “Possessed By Horror”.
About the new video, MAYARA PUERTAS comments:
“We recorded some testimonials from fans who were in line at our sold-out show, and this compilation generated an interactive clip of the song ‘Possessed by Horror’ and that makes it special. I really like the performance of this song live, in the studio recording (with the former vocalist) it sounds like thrash but live with my voice it comes with a style that approaches death metal prog”.
‘Tortura en La Iglesia En Vivo’ synthesizes the energy of the headbangers present on July 16, 2022, where the band performed in a sold-out night at La Iglesia, in São Paulo, one of the largest metropolises in the world, and the entire show recorded gave rise to the new live album.
Currently TORTURE SQUAD continues with a busy schedule, performing shows all over Brazil and preparing to release the new studio album. More information on the website: https://www.torturesquad.com.br/

Torture Squad is seen by extreme music fans as one of the most visceral and powerful metal bands in action today. With almost three decades of experience, with excellent live performances including at the most important metal festivals in the world, the Brazilian group gathered legions of fans playing throughout the country, Latin America and Europe.
In 2019, while preparing the new album, Torture Squad arrived at one of the biggest music festivals in the world, the Brazilian Rock in Rio, where they performed for an audience of 120,000 people. In a cast full of metal legends like Anthrax, Slayer, Sepultura, Scorpions and Iron Maiden, the show was epic alongside Chuck Billy (Testament) and the Brazilians of Claustrofobia on the Sunset stage, with the set covering songs from their entire career Torture Squad and Testament classics. After Rock in Rio, came the long-awaited tour of Central America, passing through Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala. The highlight was the show at Mexico Metal Fest which Torture Squad was one of the headliners.
In 2020 they released a new single and video called “O Doutrinador”, inspired by a Brazilian comic book character that also became a movie and TV series. The English version of the single and video called “The Awakener” is also available. In 2021 the band celebrated twenty years since the release of their third album ‘The Unholy Spell’ (2001) playing the entire album in Lives and live shows.
In 2022, Torture Squad performed in Brazil alongside great bands like Exodus and Nervosa, and are currently preparing to release their new studio album.
