Grito de Cien Calaveras’, the debut album of San Antonio-based black metal Yolquetza finds itself a unique place in the modern array of extreme music tinctures through it’s unabashed reverence of Mexican and indigenous folklore as well as traditional rhythmic stylings. Passages of thrashing tempos, bleak sorrow-scapes, and mystic timbres create a tragic aura that takes the listener into a journey of triumphant anguish only made palpable by the bookend segues of cumbia that seem to hauntingly weave in and out.
