Sulaco

**Sulaco** is a technical death metal/grindcore powerhouse hailing from Buffalo, New York, known for their chaotic riffs, breakneck rhythms, and unrelenting energy. Formed in the early 2000s around guitarist/vocalist Erik Burke (a veteran of bands like Lethargy and Brutal Truth), the group carves out a niche with their blend of mathy complexity and raw aggression. Their discography—including albums like *Tearing Through the Roots* and *The Prize*—showcases a knack for twisting grooves and dissonant hooks, earning them cult status among fans of extreme metal’s brainier side.

Live shows are a cornerstone of Sulaco’s identity, as seen in releases like *NOISE (Live Improv Set at Rosen Krown)*, which captures their improvisational ferocity. Tracks like *Black Cloud* and *Oxytocin* highlight their ability to balance technical precision with outright savagery. While lineup shifts have occurred over the years, their commitment to pushing boundaries in underground metal remains unwavering.
