ESHTADUR Announces Mexico Dates for “Bellum Regiis” Tour and Symphonic Live Album Release

Oct 9, 2025

Colombian blackened melodic death metal force ESHTADUR returns to Mexico this October as direct support for Polish death metal titans HATE on the incendiary “Bellum Regiis” Tour.

Kicking off on October 11 in Mexico City, this brutal cross-country trek will see ESHTADUR delivering their signature fusion of crushing riffs, symphonic grandeur, and tribal intensity to audiences across seven cities. The opening night in CDMX will be a monumental event, also featuring none other than BEHEMOTH. As one of the most internationally acclaimed extreme metal acts to emerge from Latin America, ESHTADUR is poised to conjure chaos and catharsis in every city they touch.

Bellum Regiis – Mexico 2025 Tour Dates:

  • Oct 11 – CDMX – Pabellón Oeste (with BEHEMOTH)
  • Oct 12 – Cuernavaca – The Pit
  • Oct 14 – Guadalajara – Foro Independencia
  • Oct 15 – San Luis Potosí – Bunker 57
  • Oct 16 – León – Sonica
  • Oct 17 – Monterrey – 867 Club
  • Oct 18 – Torreón – Vértigo

The tour comes ahead of ESHTADUR’s upcoming live album, Symphonic Crows – Live at the Santiago Londoño’s Theater, arriving December 4, 2025 via Void Nation. Recorded in their hometown with a full symphonic orchestra, the album is a triumphant testament to the band’s cinematic sound and uncompromising energy.

Featuring seven tracks including Lowborn Bastard, Umbra, The Red Door, and She The Void, the album captures the magic of their genre-defying performance in Pereira, Colombia. Produced by Jorg August, mixed and mastered by Diego Rodriguez, and recorded at the Santiago Londoño’s Theater, this release is a milestone in the band’s legacy, melding orchestral majesty with the relentless pulse of death metal.

About ESHTADUR: 

ESHTADUR was founded in the fall of 2005 by Jorg August, releasing the Timo Be Timo demo with a sound in the vein of COVENANT, DIMMU BORGIR, and OLD MAN’S CHILD. Since then, they have released a pair of EPs and four powerful full-length albums. ESHTADUR, meaning “the rebellion of angels,” can be most closely likened to bands such as SEPTIC FLESH, BEHEMOTH, FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE, CARACH ANGREN, and the like. Like their scene counterparts, the band embodies a deathly melodic atmosphere that reaches into realms of darkness and despair through the decay of humanity. It seeks to rebel, in its darkened way, embracing the abject reality.

Their rich touring history includes performances across Colombia, Peru, Mexico, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, and Slovakia. They have shared the stage and toured with CRADLE OF FILTH, VADER, GRAVEWORM, SEPULTURA, ABORTED, and DECAPITATED, the last three at Rock al Parque 2016. Their 2017 release via Bleeding Music Records, Mother Gray, is an expression of planetary death and putrefaction. The scathing release saw the band touring eight countries in Europe through 2018, and then visiting the United States for the first time for the Gray America Tour, including dates in Mexico. The band’s latest album, From The Abyss, was released via Blood Blast Distribution and physically distributed by Hateworks in Latin America.

In 2022, the band toured in support of BATUSHKA and DIABOLICAL, visiting Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Austria, Slovenia, Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, and Switzerland. In 2023, ESHTADUR performed at 70000 Tons of Metal, being the only band from Colombia to do so. They then embarked on a North American tour with SUMMONER’S CIRCLE, visiting New York, Kentucky, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nebraska, Colorado, Texas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, South and North Carolina, and Virginia.

After conquering 19 shows in the United States, ESHTADUR was invited as a guest of honor to the largest music festival in Latin America, Rock al Parque, supporting IN FLAMES from Sweden. The Crows from Colombia delivered a magnificent concert with Pereira’s Symphonic Orchestra at the Santiago Londoño Theater at the end of the year. This live concert was released on Pro Tape for collectors by Mutilated Records. 

In 2024, the band united forces with GRAVEWORM for a Latin American tour, visiting Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Colombia. ESHTADUR also performed at the 17th edition of Grita Fest in Manizales, Colombia, supporting HATE and EXODUS. Now the crows are gathering mist forces once again, ready to fill your soul with darkened despair at their next visit.
