Grinding the road over the past few months across Eastern Canada, Montreal’s aggro-metal CHÜZO is sharing with fans a three-part video mini-documentary of their adventures during their 2025 ONTARIO AGGRO TOUR in support of their EP “M.T.M.D (Maximum Threshold, Minimum Decay)” released this past November and produced with Kevin Jardine (Slaves On Dope, Uplift Recording Studio).

Capturing the behind-the-scenes and live performances in Oshawa, Toronto, and Hamilton, the videos were taken by CHÜZO drummer Carlos Gutierrez.

“This was an amazing little tour! We would like to thank Karina at Neurotic Entertainment and everyone involved in all three shows. We went, we conquered; and we take a bow to all of you who came to our shows, gave us your support, and purchased some of our merch, to those who moshed, and to those who gave your support to all the bands and your support for original live music. We trudged through the Maximum Threshold of touring, coming out the other side with minimum decay upon our bodies, minds, and souls. We enriched our inner selves with amazing experiences, meeting new people, and laying down the Aggro in three amazing cities in Ontario, Canada. An unforgettable experience all around, thanks once again to everyone involved; until we ride and meet again; Stay Aggro!” adds the band.

CHÜZO – ONTARIO AGGRO TOUR 2025 – “Maximum Indigestion, Minimum Decay” – Part I (Oshawa) -+ Part 2 (Toronto) + Part 3 (Hamilton):

CHÜZO‘s new EP “M.T.M.D (Maximum Threshold, Minimum Decay)” is a three-track record that marks the next chapter and a true representation of what the quartet’s sound is meant to be.

“This new EP was to showcase our new lineup with our newest songs that are truly representative of our musical style, a style that we proudly call ‘Aggro-Metal.’ Very aggressive metal songs that have relatable themes that anyone can listen to and understand. This EP is our audio shotgun blast to the world to pay attention to and to mosh intensively during our live sets,” adds guitarist Cristian S.

CHÜZO‘s new lineup features the ensnaring vocals of Taiwanese Brazilian transplant Mischa M joining local first-generation Chilean Canadian and mastermind Cristian S. along with Carlos G from Venezuela and Alex S from Russia who all have found Montreal, Canada to be their home-to-breed their blender of grindcore, Swedish death metal, thrash, and hardcore punk to transform a sub-genre dubbed ‘Aggro Metal’.

The EP’s lyrics are driven by self-reflection and daily struggles. The inspiration for writing comes from life experiences and trying to live past them, especially the traumatic ones. Using all the bad energy from bad experiences to create something positive for yourself and the world. This EP speaks of vengeance and the bad side of dedicating your life to achieving your desired revenge, despite your own life and sanity. Brutal Social Justice.

For fans of Sepultura (Cavalera Bros era 84-96), At the Gates, Napalm Death, Slipknot, and Fuck the Facts, “M.T.M.D (Maximum Threshold, Minimum Decay)” was released on November 15, 2024.

Canadian aggro-metal CHÜZO is unshackling their menacing new video for the track “Brutalator” from their latest EP “M.T.M.D (Maximum Threshold, Minimum Decay)” released this past October and produced with Kevin Jardine (Slaves On Dope, Uplift Recording Studio).

The song is about the “Brutalor”, a character that comes to each town or village to reclaim social justice to anyone who has been mistreated by greedy and evil parts of humanity.

Guitarist Cristian S explains further:

“The Brutalator” is the opening track of our latest EP, “M.T.M.D.” (Maximum Threshold, Minimum Decay). This song was a collaboration between Carlos G., Mischa M., and I, Cristian S., the leader and founder of CHÜZO, after spending about a year experimenting with its structure. The arrangement was developed by Carlos and me, but it lacked lyrics for quite some time because I struggled to find the right phrasing and inspiration. After rehearsing the song for a while and having a profound discussion with Mischa about anti-heroes and other tracks in Metal, such as “The Wizard” by Black Sabbath or “Edgecrusher” by Fear Factory, Mischa crafted the lyrics that would become the final version for “Brutalator.” Her lyrics tell the story of an anti-hero betrayed by life and loved ones, discarded and mistreated—a constant victim of societal injustices. Bound by honor and revenge, he trains himself and returns to fulfill the wishes of the unfairly treated, the exploited, and the oppressed of an unjust society, seeking vengeance and enforcing his version of justice against those who instigate injustices against the weak and abused. Her lyrics perfectly complement the song structure, giving birth to our best track. She also created the intro, a beautiful piano arrangement that sets the tone for the song.
