Xibalba is one of Mexico's first Black Metal bands; they formed all the way back in 1992. Just a few months after Mayhem released the legendary De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas, Xibalba released their own masterpiece, the hilariously named Ah Dzam Poop Ek. Despite the funny name, this album is amazing. Compared to their contemporaries in Norway, Xibalba brand of Black Metal is more mid-tempo and upbeat and the infectious riffs they play have this classic metal feel to them. They also include some ancient Mayan tribal music to give it that unique twist.
