Teitanblood is a Spanish extreme metal band formed in 2003. Based in Madrid, it currently consists of NSK (vocals, guitar, bass) and J (drums). The band released its debut album, Seven Chalices, in 2009. Its follow-up, Death, was released in May 2014 via The Ajna Offensive and Norma Evangelium Diaboli record labels.[2] The latter record was included on Decibel magazine's list of "Top 40 Albums of 2014" as number 26.[3]

Musical style

Teitanblood's music is generally labeled as death metal and black metal.[2] The band's debut was described by BrooklynVegan as "the most discordant, destructive, and ultimately unfucwitable blackened death in a long time",[4] and their follow-up album was labeled by Pitchfork as "a weaponized hybrid of the two genres".[5] The band's music also features influences from bands such as Repulsion, Necrovore, Incantation, Autopsy,[6] as well as thrash metal.[5] The band's logo appears on the cover of Darkthrone's Circle the Wagons album as a form of homage.[7][8]
