Purified 04:28
-- Purified -- Tell me, what’s your favorite lie? Tell me, what you failed to hide You seem to forget that I know you well Don’t preach from a book that I wrote myself I know what you know So tell me what’s your alibi Tell me who’s to blame this time? You seem to forget how it was I wonder if pain can remind you You seem to forget that I know you well Don’t preach from a book that I wrote myself I know what you know So tell me Is the rope too tight? Your sins are laying on my floor You’re purified Your sins are laying on my floor You’re purified

-- El Sur de la Fe -- The blessings of crisis the preachers for sale the trail of the money el sur de la fe the lies of a leader the lies of a book the price of salvation el sur de la fe el sur de la fe… the church of finances the credit of God la deuda del mundo el sur de la fe

-- No es mi verdad -- La sangre sin vicios Retorna a derramarse Por el libro Donde basas tu verdad No es mi verdad La sangre de infancia Manchada por los vicios Escondidos en tu paz Sin confesar No es mi verdad

The Grace 05:47
-- The Grace -- Did you bless the lie? Did you embrace the cross of hate? Did you buy on time? A new born knows who leads the way to the grace our disgrace Did you cross the line? Did you forget your common sense? Are you ready now? It's time to show the real way to the grace our disgrace

Voices 04:31
-- Voices -- The dance has begun don't you see? Don't you see me dancing in the flames Dancing demons from your past don't you hear them laughing inside your head? Your praying won't help… Your praying won't help. We're here cause you made us We're here cause you missed us We're here cause you need us We're here cause we're just like you Don't try to think you'll get away come and dance with us it's time to play this whole thing is a part of you we're the demons dancing inside your head Your praying won't help… Your praying won't help We're the voices you forgot and we're here cause you made us we're here cause you missed us we're here cause you need us we're here cause we're just like you: we're cursed like you Your praying won't help

-- Tres Seis Diez Dos -- No se cansa la voz que martilla en mi paciencia que siembra en mi dolor No se cansa la voz hoy se confunde con la voz de mi interior Hoy no quiero olvidar hoy no quiero callar hoy no es día para perdonar Tres seis diez dos... Tres seis diez dos… Ya no escucho la voz ya no decora mis creencias y miente en mi versión La línea se cruzo todo en el nombre de mi vieja religión… Y no quiero olvidar y no quiero callar hoy no es día para perdonar tres seis diez dos... tres seis diez dos… dos, dos ….

Your Call 05:51
-- Your Call -- I've been to the place where it all begun .. and I'm still there.. I've seen .. I've seen it all I've seen this time all the drawings on the floor I heard, at last, your call, your call. I counted six contradictions in your plan I heard, and ignored, your call, your call. Viviendo en tu visión, encontre tu verdad, la estoy asfixiando. Dentro de tu visión soy dueño de tu paz la estoy desangrando. Dentro de tu visión te estoy esperando

International Press quotes about "El Mal del Bien"

Doommantia.com (USA) – 9/10
Cultura Tres didn’t sit still on their sudden big early success, but were able to push towards evolution of their dark sound with great diversity: sludge, doom, and occasionally touches of post-metal, dark psychedelia and even folk music. (…) I got haunted by their album: these guys are “deep underground” and sound so well ….

BeardRock.com (UK)
“Cultura Tres manage to strike a raw nerve that most new UK and US bands don't quite hit.”

TheSleepingShaman.com (UK)
“With this album under their belts it will only be a matter of time before Cultura Tres are huge.”

MetalDisciple.com (USA)
“I feel blind-sided by how magnificent this album sounds.”

Orlandooom.com (USA) - 9/10
This is haunting stuff, definitely something to listen to with headphones in a dark room. So many emotions are elicited from El Mal del Bien's contemplative swells…

-Grinder Magazine (Chile) – 5/5
Followers of Sludge / Doom pay attention: Cultura Tres is an amazing Venezuelan band. Their second - most acclaimed - album sounds heavy, dense and intense.

Stonerrock.hu (Hungary) - 9/10
Overall, this LP is brilliant, it was long ago that I heard such a daring band. Their songs sound as one style, and yet each is completely different, showing three different faces: sludge, doom and psychedelic rock.

-The Sludge Lord (UK)
Top-notch Doom/Sludge Metal from our hugely talented South American cousins. This new release is their best work yet: nothing comes close to this amazing album.

Stonerobixxx.blogspot.com (Belgium)
Furious South American sludge/ doom metal: 'El Mal del Bien' is a really dynamic, non-linear trip in the genre.

PuroRuido.blogspot.com (Argentina)
One of the most interesting sludge/doom bands these days, hails from Venezuela.

-The Soda Shop (USA)
Get this sludgey good album now!

ZannMusic.com.ar (Argentina)
Monumental riffs. Slow, very slow. The song arrangements stray from the path of sludge on numerous occasions: incorporating elements from traditional music, hallucinogens and melodic, calm moments.

-Temple of Perdition (France)
Cultura Tres displays rich and amazingly heavy music: an intense trip full of subtle, catchy, haunting atmospheres with a unique guitar sound that could simply become a kind of trademark! Some specialists might always find some more or less obvious influences but I'm sorry I can NOT, I feel this is very, very original music!

about

Cultura Tres

In 2019 after hearing about the plans for a new Cultura Tres album, old friend Paulo Xisto Pinto Jr. (bass player of the almighty Sepultura), surprised the brothers by offering to join in.

Listen for yourself to “Camino de Brujos” and let the music lure you into its darkness, heaviness and beauty. You won’t be disappointed.
