| - Parabellum (1983-1991) fue una banda de metal extremo colombiana, originaria de la ciudad de Medellín. Fue formada a finales del año 1983. Influenciada por diferentes géneros del metal, fue producto de una nueva corriente en la escena subterránea de la ciudad, emergida concretamente en la mítica batalla de las bandas de 1985 en la plaza de toros La Macarena, surgida de una escena que hasta ese entonces estaba orientada a imitar grupos de heavy metal. Parabellum ―junto a Reencarnación, y otras agrupaciones―, representaron un quiebre respecto a esos grupos. Con estas bandas se crea por primera vez un sonido oscuro (Naciente en Europa), desarraigado y definitivamente propio en el escenario colombiano. (es)

Parabellum ―junto a Reencarnación, y otras agrupaciones―, representaron un quiebre respecto a esos grupos. Con estas bandas se crea por primera vez un sonido oscuro (Naciente en Europa), desarraigado y definitivamente propio en el escenario colombiano. Cabe mencionar que esta banda es considerada una de las bandas que dieron pauta al black metal en Latinoamérica, junto con otras más de la misma época. Así como también fueron inspiración para Mayhem una de las bandas insignia, más legendarias y polémicas del black metal europeo, según afirma Kjetil Manheim Ex-Baterista de esta banda. (es)
- Parabellum were a Colombian extreme metal band from Medellín active in the 1980s. The band was described by Terrorizer magazine as one of the world's first black metal bands, as well as the first extreme metal band from Colombia and one of the first from all South America. According to writer Emilio Cuesta, Øystein "Euronymous" Aarseth—a musician associated with the early Norwegian black metal scene—has said Parabellum and Medellín's Reencarnación were both influential to his own band Mayhem. Parabellum were formed in Medellín, Antioquia, in early 1983 by drummer Cipriano Álvarez and guitarist Carlos Mario Pérez. It took the band until 1987 to release their debut single, the two track Sacrilegio, limited to 500 copies. This was followed up with a second EP, Mutación por radiación, in 1988, limited to 600 copies. Sacrilegio was reissued in 1992, again limited to 500 copies, and a bootlegged version surfaced with an added third track ("Guerra, Monopolio, Sexo"). Adam Ganderson of Terrorizer describes their music as "somewhere between hardcore and bizarrely backwards speed metal riffing ... one of those inimitable sounds that can only be generated by accident. Seriously, this is some of the weirdest, most intense music ever to blast from the gutters." The band also makes a brief appearance in Víctor Gaviria's film Rodrigo D: No Future. Blasfemia Records released the Tempus Mortis compilation in 2005, which consists of the band's two EPs, six previously unreleased rehearsal tracks from 1984 to 1985, and a video track from the 1985 La Batalla de la Bandas festival. According to Zero Tolerance magazine, "the sound that Parabellum created was one of unprecedented nihilism, evil and extremity. [...] They were pioneers and sonic adventurers operating in a world of violence, squalor and geographical isolation." (en)
