Transmetal is an extreme metal band formed in Ciudad Azteca, Ecatepec, Mexico in 1987 by brothers Javier, Juan, and Lorenzo Partida. They are known as one of the most important metal bands in Latin America.[1] Their most well known song is "Killers" from the Desear un Funeral EP (1989), which is a cover of French band Template:Ill. They are also known for their 1993 album El infierno de Dante recorded at Morrisound Studios, with Scott Burns as the producer. It also featured Glen Benton on choruses. The album almost sold 100.000 copies and got them regularly featured on MTV.

During their career, Transmetal have released over 30 albums which experiment in thrash and death metal, with the vocals styles based on growling. The band has also participated in shows with other notable bands such as Slayer, Sepultura, Overkill, and Kreator.[2][3][4][5]
