PENTACROSTIC – the pain tears – CD

Label : Caverna Abismal Records

Originally released in 1992, The Pain Tears marked the striking debut of Pentacrostic, one of the true forerunners of Death/Doom Metal in Brazil. Emerging from São Paulo’s fertile underground in 1989, the band stood out early on for their heavy, sorrow-laden sound that helped shape the darker contours of the national scene. Now, over three decades later, Caverna Abismal Records brings this cult classic back to life in a long-overdue CD reissue, including the band’s crushing 1990 demo Agony of Souls and a raw, reverent cover of “Fallen Angel” by fellow Brazilian legends Vulcano. A definitive document of South America’s early death/doom legacy — bleak, honest, and essential.
