Pesta

Since 2014, and now as a quartet, Pesta has forged a consistent path with its album releases, videos, and live performances. Formed in the mountainous city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil, over a decade ago by Anderson Vaca (bass) and former member Daniel Rocha (guitar), the band was founded with the motivation of being a conscious tribute to the pillars of the doom genre—Pentagram, Trouble, Candlemas, Cathedral, and the inevitable shadow of Black Sabbath—a sound influenced by stoner rock, traditional doom metal, and seventies hard rock, updated with a mature sense of composition and a remarkable live performance. Pesta today consolidates itself as one of the most interesting voices in the current Brazilian metal scene, especially in the stoner doom genre, where it has become one of the most respected and well-known bands.
