Quemasantos willpremier the video lyric for the symphonic version of the track 'Arcángel 6', that was originally included on their self-titled album released via Digmetalworld and distributed by MVD in the United States in 2022.
The new version of ‘Acangel 6’ is a dark and intense mix, which this time features the special participation of Melhaller, a composer who since 2016 has given life to his solo project that fuses symphonic metal with occultism and mystical systems. Arcangel 6, symphony version was remixed and remastered by Ignacio Orellana at Oily Sound Studios in New York City. The concept art was created by Rob Diaz.
You can watch to the lyric video for ‘Arcangel 6’ symphonic version here tomorrow at 11am New York Time:
Melhaller commented:
"It is always a motivating and enriching experience to collaborate with artists as talented and committed as Quemasantos. This time the alchemy was with vampiric keyboards, dark passages and heavy metal." -
Rob Díaz commented:
“This new version of Arcángel 6 exacerbates the anguish in a release that mixes elements of cosmic horror and religiosity, both inserted in music of great intensity and the drama of classic horror.”
Pirosaint’s drummer, Ignacio Orellana has launched his new company, Aceite Diablo LLC.
Aceite Diablo is the culmination of a long journey that started more than a year and a half ago. Its products are a blend of devilish spices turned into a sinfully delicious oil created in Hell’s Kitchen, NY.
Ignacio Orellana have commented:
‘I’m located in Hell’s Kitchen, New York, where there are a big number of restaurants around with a variety of cultures. My family and I enjoy going out to eat at different restaurants and learning about new foods and flavors. After tasting many foods, we decided to create a product that would complement flavors from other cultures, while adding a little spice to it. Our product doesn’t change the original flavor of the food, but instead, adds a kick!
We only work with approved products to ensure that our customers consume only high quality spices. All of our ingredients are FDA approved, therefore our product is safe and delicious!’
To celebrate this addition, we have unearthed 4 tracks previously recorded in 2016 to showcase his talents. We this EP the band is looking forward to start performing live again pretty soon.

A pretty cheerful ballad about love, deceptions and frustration that we are sure everyone can relate one way or another.'
