Ecuador's extreme metal act SARCOMA have unveiled their brutal new full length offering, Ponzoña via Valley of the Death. Ponzoña marks the latest ferocious chapter from the Ecuador-based ensemble, whose career began two decades ago, as they continue to evolve their distinctive sound.

"This album is a sample of what Sarcoma has always sought to be. This time the emphasis lies on simple structures centered around well-developed riffs." The band explain.

"The new album is characterized by the search for the perfect balance between old school and modern metal trends, seeking its own sound and voice within the global metal scene.

Sarcoma is not afraid to use elements from different genres of underground music, flirting with death metal, deathcore, and metallic hardcore. A union of the elements that we consider to be the strongest of what we like to hear, but consider have never been fused together in our particular way."

On the album's title, the band reveal,"The album's name Ponzoña, is a Spanish word used for deadly poisons or really poisonous insects. There are a couple of reasons behind us choosing this name: the main one is obviously the specific feeling we wanted to evoke when listening to the final product.

The second, and less known one is that Ponzoña was also one of the many nicknames we jokingly gave the band among us many, many years ago. Unexpectedly we then realized that the word had a cool ring to it, and accurately described the band’s sonic identity".
