Teitanblood is a Spanish extreme metal band formed in 2003. Based in Madrid, the band currently consists of NSK (vocals, guitar, bass) and J (drums). The band released its debut album, Seven Chalices in 2009. Its follow-up, Death, was released 13 May 2014 via The Ajna Offensive and Norma Evangelium Diaboli record labels.[1] The latter record was included on Decibel magazine’s list of Top 40 Albums Of 2014 as number 26.[2]

Teitanblood's music is generally labeled as death metal and black metal.[1] The band's debut was described by BrooklynVegan as "the most discordant, destructive, and ultimately unfucwitable blackened death in a long time",[3] and their follow-up album was labeled by Pitchfork as "a weaponized hybrid of the two genres".[4] The band's music also features influences from bands such as Repulsion, Necrovore and early Incantation, as well as Chris Reifert's death-doom work[5] and thrash metal.[4]
