LaCabra - LACABRA (2025)

LaCabra's self-titled debut album, released on June 6, 2025, via M-Theory Audio, has garnered acclaim for its unrelenting intensity and cohesive execution. Antichrist Magazine describes the album as "groovy and dense as fuck the whole way through," emphasizing its continuous momentum without unnecessary interludes. The publication notes that LaCabra has made "a proclamation of insidious domination over the US Extreme Metal scene," highlighting the band's potential to become a significant force in the genre.

The album's production, handled by the band alongside Gwen Kerjan, and mastering by King Diamond guitarist Andy LaRocque, contributes to its polished yet aggressive sound. The cover art by Nestor Avalos and logo by Christian Spzajdel further encapsulate the band's aesthetic.
