An all-female death metal band, Castrator, is making their way to Brooklyn with their fierce sound and serious message. The band announced their upcoming performance at Metal of Armageddon IX on Sept.11 at The meadows in Brooklyn, New York, through an Instagram post. The post featured a bold teaser photo and a short caption confirming the date, venue, and ticket details, with a note that tickets can be purchased through the link in their bio.
Castrator, an international death metal band based in New York, uses their aggressive music to speak about injustice, abuse, and human suffering, often presenting a unique perspective within the genre. Their upcoming Brooklyn performance adds to their list of high-profile shows, including an appearance at Milwaukee Metal Fest on June 6.
The Metal of Armageddon IX show comes after Castrator’s recent announcement of their performance at Milwaukee Metal Fest. With a lineup consisting of Clarissa Badini on vocals, Carolina Pérez on drums, Robin Mazen on bass, and Sara Loerlein on guitar, the band released their most recent album, “Coronation of the Grotesque,” on Aug. 15, 2025, through Dark Descent Records. The album received praise for its tight songwriting, heavy riffs, and fearless themes.
Castrator, which formed in 2013, challenges traditional death metal themes by focusing on empowerment and accountability in their lyrics. While their discography includes early releases like “No Victim” and their 2022 debut “Defiled in Oblivion,” “Coronation of the Grotesque” marks a turning point for the band. The album was recorded with the help of well-known figures in the U.S. death metal scene and showcases a more focused and confident version of Castrator.
Throughout late 2025, Castrator toured across the United States in support of their latest album, honing their live performances. With their appearance at Metal of Armageddon IX now confirmed, the band continues to balance national festival appearances with local performances, solidifying their presence in the metal scene.
