Sid The long-awaited follow up for La Caida De Tonatiuh is here!

I've been waiting patiently for this and it does not disappoint! This album improves in many areas from their last album - especially when it comes to sound production. While I loved LCDT's sound, I felt there were times that the guitar's notes were drowned in certain parts. Here, they ring out clear.

My only complaint, petty as it may be, would be clean vocals. I understand what they were trying to do with them, but I dont like them Favorite track: Covadonga.

Dumb mmmn If you were living hundreds of years ago in a monastery, and a hole in the sky opened up and conquistador spirits begin rising from the grave.. would that be enough for an inquisition? an intervention?

rvss.eel After the beautiful flamenco opener, Bajo Las... drops to life from the portal in the sky and is a composite of pretty much everything Impureza has to offer. It's wildly energetic, catchy, and awesome. More so than ever before, on Alcázares, the flamenco is integrated into the fabric of the songs. Even though there are pure sections, its influence is there in the writing and undertones of everything, deathy as it may be, including more frequent clean vocals. One of the most fun albums this year. Favorite track: Bajo las Tizonas de Toledo.

about

Forged in the fires of French-Spanish heritage, IMPUREZA has spent two decades pioneering Hispanic Metal - a fierce fusion of extreme metal and the passionate rhythms of flamenco. Wielding their Iberian identity like a blade, they have conquered stages worldwide, leaving an indestructible mark on the international metal scene. With ‘Alcázares’, IMPUREZA plunges into the heart of medieval Spain, resurrecting the legends of the Reconquista with unrelenting ferocity. From the war cries of “Bajo las Tizonas de Toledo” to the spectral doom of “El Ejército de los Fallecidos de Alarcos”, this album is a relentless expedition through history, mysticism, and blood-soaked battles. The scorching fusion of flamenco guitars, orchestral grandeur, and brutal death metal reaches its peak here, crafted with masterful precision by Sébastien Camhi and Jacob Hansen.
