The band TORTURE SQUAD began their activities in Sao Paulo/Brazil in the early 90’s and they are right now without any doubt one of the biggest metal bands in Brazil. They already shared the stage with acts like Anthrax, Kreator, Exodus, Overkill, Dimmu Borgir, Monstrosity, Sepultura and Krisiun to name just a few. They are also playing the biggest festivals in their home country like the Extreme Metal Fest or the Brazil Metal Union and they conquered whole South America (inlcuding Columbia, Chile, Paraguay and Venezuela) by touring constantly .
Beside foremost places in the polls of famous Brazilian magazines such as Roadie Crew or Rock Brigade TORTURE SQUAD appeared several times on MTV and are also a well known act in every Metal radio show in South America.
In 2006 it was time to conquer the European market so they came over to play about 20 shows in Germany and Austria. These concerts get them a lot of attention from several labels and bookers in Europe. In 2007 the band came again to Germany to play at the Metal Battle in Wacken. With a phenomenal show they convinced the audience and the jury of the Metal Battle competition and won.
As a result of this success TORTURE SQUAD decided to sign a contract with Armageddon Music and the first result of this cooperation is called “Hellbound”. This album will for sure be the final break-through for the band in Europe and it will manifest their status in South America. Ten high quality Death/Thrash songs are blowing the listener away and especially the incredible drums are setting a new standard in this genre. Their sound is rough and brutal but there are always some parts in the songs that you will never forget and that you like to hear again and again. Take “Chaos Corporation” for example: A thrashing hit without compromises!
The release of “Hellbound” goes along with a European tour including more than 50 gigs all over the continent. TORTURE SQUAD are also going to play the Metal Battle shows as a special guest and of course they will return to the Wacken Open Air to say thank you to each and everybody who made all this possible.
