Repose Records proudly presents ‘LAMPIÃO REI’, the second studio album by the Brazilian avant-garde metal band PAPANGU.

Recorded by 3x Latin Grammy-winning engineer Fernando Sanches and mixed by Berlin-based producer Richard Behrens (Elder, Kadavar), Lampião Rei continues Papangu's series of albums on the Cangaço movement that began with Holoceno, the band's critically acclaimed 2021 debut.

While Holoceno is a Faustian allegory of environmental destruction, Lampião Rei instead presents an epic, biographical narrative of magical realism, recounting the trials and tribulations of Virgulino Ferreira da Silva, a.k.a. Lampião (1898 – 1938), the legendary bandit leader of the Brazilian Northeast, from his birth until his rise as the most fearful man in Brazil. The rest of the story—Lampião's downfall and the infamous beheading of his whole crew in 1938—will be continued in a future recording.

The result is Papangu's own brand of cinematic, metallic zeuhl taken to a rolling boil, showing not only the high-octane intensity that brought them comparisons to King Crimson and Magma, but also proudly displaying their Brazilian heritage, with influences ranging from Hermeto Pascoal and Edu Lobo to Sepultura.

LAMPIÃO REI is set for release on September 6th. The first track ‘Oferenda no Alguidar’ is streaming across all platforms now!

INCESSANT, the cosmic and existential blackened death metal from Dublin, Ireland are set to release their highly anticipated new EP, 'Entropic Aeons,' through Repose Records on July 26th.
