Tzompantli

September 10, 2024

Death metal is in the middle of a resurgence and no band in SoCal seems better poised to push it in new directions than Tzompantli. Named for the Nahuatl word for an Aztec skull rack, the band fuses doom and death metal with indigenous Mexican instruments for a unique sonic fusion. After being blown away by their performance at Zebulon in August, Laser Angel sat down with lead singer Brian and bassist Eric to discuss their music, upcoming projects and their creative process.
