Southern California's dominating hardcore unit XIBALBA have
confirmed the details of their highly anticipated forthcoming sophomore LP, Hasta
La Muerte.
XIBALBA's debut LP Madre Mia Gracias Por Los
Dias -- released in 2011 via LP by A389 Records and later on CD by
Southern Lord -- combined with a relentless touring schedule for the past two
years, have earned XIBALBA the utmost respect from hardcore
and metal fans worldwide. After officially signing with Southern Lord late last
year, the time for the band's first official release for the label to be
unleashed grows near.
Taking their down-tuned assault to iniquitous new
dimensions, XIBALBA's ravenous breakdowns hit with the force of
tsunamis and their riffs like mires of quicksand on Hasta La Muerte,
showcasing more than ever how well the unit delivers such low-end savagery
while remaining resilient, undeviating from their course of destruction. The
album now confirmed for North American release on August 14th, the band
recorded with Taylor Young (Nails), and outsourced the album's powerful cover
art concept to renowned death metal artist Dan Seagrave (Dismember, Entombed,
Morbid Angel, Suffocation, etc.).

After dominating local venues and festivals in multiple
continents over the past two years, including a European trek, constant touring
of North America, and recently their first tours of Australia and Southeast
Asia, XIBALBA have returned to Europe for a new twenty-one date
live assault, beginning in Frankfurt, Germany tonight! Upon their return the
band will take part in this year's The Power Of The Riff West in Los Angeles,
alongside Off!, Dr. Know, Repulsion, Noothgrush, Eagle Twin and tons more,
followed by a a full US tour alongside their brethren in Alpha & Omega
this August and much more subsequent touring to be announced through the rest
of the year.
