Ibridoma
Title:Sangue Innocente
Label:Punishment 18 Records
Release Date:25th September 2026
Ibridoma return swinging like a band that never forgot where the real fight is. "Sangue Innocente" feels like someone cracked open a time capsule from 1983, poured gasoline inside, and handed it to you with a grin. It’s Speed/Thrash energy sharpened to a blade, but wrapped in that melodic Italian charm that makes the riffs feel like they’re flirting with you while punching you in the ribs.
The production is clean enough to show off the musicianship but dirty enough to keep the danger. The vocals sung mostly in Italian hit with that raw, street‑level conviction you only get when a band sings in its mother tongue. It’s not polished for radio; it’s sharpened for battle.
Tracks tear through you with riffs that scream Flotsam & Jetsam, Annihilator, Iced Earth, Anthrax, Megadeth, and even flashes of Maiden and Priest — but never in a copycat way. Ibridoma steal nothing; they inherit the flame and spit it back out with their own venom.
The melodies? They don’t just hook you they drag you by the collar. The solos feel like they’re played by someone who’s been waiting years to unleash them. The rhythm section stomps like a warhorse that’s sick of being polite.
And the cover art? It’s a perfect snapshot of the world right now digital, dystopian, and staring you down like it knows you’re part of the problem. It fits the music’s mood: hopeful, pissed off, nostalgic, and ready to fight.
This is a band that’s been through line-up chaos, industry nonsense, and the usual metal‑scene trenches… yet they still sound hungry.
Still sound dangerous. Still sound like they’ve got something to prove and they prove it.
Ibridoma aren’t just keeping the flame alive. They’re pouring petrol on it.
"Sangue Innocente" is the kind of album that makes you remember why heavy metal grabbed you in the first place the sweat, the grit, the melody, the attitude, the refusal to die quietly.
It’s fun. It’s venomous. It’s heavy. It’s Ibridoma doing what Ibridoma do best: bleeding for the music!!
