AVESSO to present new EP uma morte por mil cortes at M.Ou.Co with Sinistro
Portuguese rock band AVESSO will present their new EP, uma morte por mil cortes, at M.Ou.Co in Porto on November 28th 2026. The concert will take place one day after the release of the four-track record, scheduled for November 27th, and will feature Sinistro as special guests.
The performance marks a new chapter for AVESSO, following the release of their debut album, desassossego, in 2023. The band emerged from an artistic residency in early 2022, bringing together musicians with different musical backgrounds to develop a sound that combines melodic passages, dissonance and experimental arrangements.
Featuring Diogo Leite on drums, Dani Valente on guitar, Vitor Hugo on guitar and vocals, and Paulo Rui on bass and vocals, AVESSO perform rock in Portuguese, with lyrics that explore the complexities of human experience. Their work draws on philosophical and literary references, creating a connection between musical experimentation and reflections on existence, time and the human condition.
The new EP continues this approach while introducing further developments in the band’s sound. Its first single, “eterno retorno”, was released in September and offers an initial indication of the record’s conceptual direction. Inspired by the Rubáiyát of Persian poet Omar Khayyam, the song considers the relationship between the present and the recurring patterns of human history, addressing the passage of time through a combination of introspection and contemporary rock.
The upcoming concert will provide an opportunity to hear the new material in a live setting, alongside a band that has continued to develop its identity through the interplay of melody, dissonance and Portuguese-language songwriting.
Sinistro, known for their distinctive approach to heavy music, the Portuguese band combines elements of doom and sludge with dense atmospheres, theatrical expression and a strong emphasis on vocal performance. Their inclusion brings together two acts that explore different approaches to the expressive possibilities of Portuguese alternative and heavy music.
The concert at M.Ou.Co represents the first confirmed date announced for the presentation of uma morte por mil cortes. With the EP arriving on November 27th and the live event following the next day, AVESSO will introduce this new phase of their work through a performance that places the record at the centre of the evening.
