THE SCENE
The Metal scene has always been around in El Salvador. Since the nineties more bands have been popping up and the scene got organized. The majority of bands play DEATH METAL, however they try to incorporate HARDCORE, BLACK METAL and THRASH into the music. At the shows bands play covers from Deicide, Carcass, Slayer, Dismember, Unleashed, etc. since none of these bands will ever play in El Salvador. Recently we have had more international bands such as A.N.M.A.L., the Misfits & Angeles del Infierno amoung others. Every once it a while there are shows organized by the Rockers Club or by Megarock. We also have a METAL show on the radio called "DENTRO DEL METAL" (Inside Metal). Most of the shows are at auditoriums like FENASTRAS or at the University of El Salvador. The first METAL FEST was occurred in 1998, with most of the bands listed below participating. Some of the bands like KABAK and SEPELIO have had a chance to tour Mexico and Central America. A lot of bands are in the process of recording professional demos. KABAK is the first to release a CD internationally. The scene in El Salvador is very difcult at the moment amny of the bands have broken up, however new bands start everyday.
I hope you get a better understanding of our scene and enjoy the web page.
Special salute to our departed scene members : Omar Vásquez (Inside Death), Julio (Kabak) & William (Cangrena Renal).
