The Brazilian power trio Disgrace and Terror, formed by Rot (vocals and bass), Vinicius Carvalho (guitar) and Aldyr Rod (drums), will release their sixth studio album, “The True Will of Evil”, on April 22nd via national labels Distro Rock, Rapture, Misantropic, Metal Island, Brutaller and Pentagrama. Following this, the death and thrash metal group embarks on a new tour across Europe, organized by On Fire Booking Agency, starting on April 25th with a show at the renowned Portuguese festival SWR Barroselas Metalfest and continuing with more dates in Portugal, as well as from Spain, France, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands.
The successor to “Casa Nefanda” (2021) contains seven new tracks, as well as four bonuses. The drums were recorded at Hey Ho Estúdio, while the guitar, bass and vocals were recorded at The Coven Studio, both in Belém (Pará). The mixing and mastering were carried out by guitarist Vinicius Carvalho, who is also a music producer. “The True Will of Evil” had its cover art developed by Colombian artist KalaArt, which used a technique that combines acrylic and oil painting on canvas. The work portrays the Hectorian worldview on the concept of Evil, in its nuances and complexity.
“In the painting, the Tree of Life and Death in Kabbalah stands out, a main eye associated with the main character of the Hectorian Current (Héctor Escobar Gutiérrez) and an unusual Baphomet, with serpents associated with the beings that inhabit the Qliphotic Tree. There are also a dark sphere representing Taumiel, a representation of Satan“, details vocalist and bassist Rot.
