Dia de los Muertos (band)

Dia de los Muertos is an American death/thrash metal band formed in Los Angeles in 2005 by Andres Jaramillo and Alfonso Pinzón of Agony and bassist Vincent Price of Body Count. To date, the band has released two EPs and one full-length studio album.

History
The band was founded by guitarist Andres Jaramillo and drummer Alfonso Pinzón of Agony, and Vincent Price of Body Count, as a side project. Lacking a vocalist, they invited other singers to write lyrics and record vocals over their music.

Their first release, the Day of the Dead EP, was recorded at Dungeon Studios in Los Angeles, mixed by Roy Z, and released on Cinismo Records in 2005. It featured vocals by Tony Campos (Static-X, Fear Factory), Andres Gimenez (A.N.I.M.A.L.), Loana dP Valencia (Dreams of Damnation), and Alex Oquendo (Masacre).

In 2006, Dia De Los Muertos performed at the Colombian rock festival Rock al Parque in Bogotá.

In 2011, the band issued their debut full-length album, Satanico-Dramatico, with Loana dP Valencia on vocals, Adrian Villanueva on guitar, and Alejandro Corredor on bass.

In 2013, Dia De Los Muertos embarked on a Latin American tour, with Mexican singer Rosa Arias joining the band. They performed at the Metal Fest in Santiago, Chile, Teatro Flores in Buenos Aires, Argentina—opening for Carcass, Hell & Heaven Metal Fest in Guadalajara, Mexico, and Del Putas Fest in Medellin, Colombia. The band then returned to Mexico for a second time, then headed to Europe to play Resurrection Fest in Spain.

A year later, Dia De Los Muertos released their next record, the EP No Money – No Fiesta.
