Torture Squad, one of the most renowned Brazilian metal bands, has released their long-awaited new album, titled ‘Devilish.’ Continuing the album’s promotion, they’re releasing a new version of the track “Warrior.” The single and music video feature Leather Leone, the iconic American vocalist, who brought the energy of 80s metal to the song. “Warrior” is a tribute to Rickson Gracie, the resilient Jiu-Jitsu fighter considered one of the sport’s greatest legends.<\/p>\n
Mayara Puertas comments on the release:<\/p>\n
“‘Warrior’ is a song for all the warriors of the world, inspired by the life philosophy of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu master Rickson Gracie. This new version features Leather Leone as our very special guest, blending Heavy and Thrash Metal, sung by two female metal singers from different generations, as a symbol of struggle and resistance.”<\/p>\n
Leather Leone will also make a special appearance at Torture Squad’s Summer Breeze Open Air Brasil show, celebrating the diversity and strength of women in heavy metal. The show will take place at the Memorial da Am\u00e9rica Latina in S\u00e3o Paulo on Sunday, April 28th.<\/p>\n
On their second album with the new lineup, Mayara Puertas (Vocals), Rene Simionato (Guitar), Castor (Bass), and Amilcar Christ\u00f3faro (Drums) maturely transcend the sound of extreme metal, incorporating progressive metal and influences from Brazilian and symphonic music. “Devilish” promises to shake up the Brazilian metal scene and bring new international visibility.<\/p>\n
“Devilish” is available on digital platforms and in physical form, with national distribution by Sound City Records and Valhall Music. LISTEN TO THE ALBUM \u2018DEVILISH\u2019 HERE<\/a><\/p>\n
