Leprosy is a noteworthy band within the Latin American heavy metal scene, particularly known for their thrash metal sound that has resonated with fans over decades. Their origins trace back to the mid-1980s in Mexico, where they were among the pioneers of the metal movement in the country. With a gritty and aggressive style, Leprosy's music often delivers a powerful blend of speed and heaviness, drawing from various influences including the legendary sound of American death metal.

The band's discography is a testament to their commitment to metal and their ability to maintain relevance in a rapidly evolving music landscape. Among their recent releases, "Sangre de Cristo" and "Cuando los lobos dejen de aullar" showcase their relentless energy and solid musicianship. The project "EN RUIDO ESTUDIO" and the two volumes of "Convivencia Sagrada" nod to their storied past, particularly honoring Alberto Pimentel, a significant figure in their journey. "Llueve Sangre" and "La Maldición" reinforce their reputation for creating music with intensity and depth, while "En Vivo Desde Tijuana. Mex." captures the raw live experience that fans have come to expect from a Leprosy performance. Additionally, their "Tributo a Death (En Español)" pays homage to one of their inspirations, further cementing their stature as a dedicated and influential entity in the metal genre.
