Torture Squad is a classic band in South
America of Deathrash Metal. They have 7 albums in his
career and this one would be the impressive number 8 in
his career. A work that keeps all its power even more
Brutal, that at times reminds us of the first works of
bands like: Benediction, moments of Obituary, and also
mixed with Thrash Metal.

“Far Beyond Existence” featured many special
guests, such as Dave Ingram (HAIL OF BULLETS, former BENEDICTION
and BOLT THROWER) in “Hate”; Edu Lane (NERVOCHAOS)
in the narrative on “Cursed by Disease”; Luiz
Louzada (VULCANO and CHEMICAL DESASTER) in “You
Must Proclaim”; Alex Camargo (KRISIUN) in “Just
Got Paid”, playing Hammond in the instrumental track
“Torture in Progress”
The lyrics kept the tradition of expressing about different
topics, such as the questions of life that are beyond
human comprehension (“Far Beyond Existence”),
passing by inspiring messages of attitude (“Steady
Hands”), “ lovely” words to the Brazilian
politicians (“Don’t Cross My Path” and
“You must Proclaim”), and even the life philosophy
of Bruce Lee (“Hero for the Ages”).
The cover art work was created exclusively for the album
by Rafael Tavares, and contains several details which
refer to the theme of the album. The image of the skull
represents all that we humans have in common (so, we are
equals); the serpent, the animals; the sky and the rocks,
the universe, and the reptilian eye symbolizes portals
to worlds that are far beyond our knowledge, “more
questions than answers”, as it says in an excerpt
from the title track.
A brutal work that brings with it a great musical and
artistic production, and a quality of composition that
nowadays is difficult to obtain in a final product in
the metal. Doubtlessly, an album that cannot be missing
from your home discography.
