**Flactorophia** was a grindcore project from Quito, Ecuador in South America. The project began in 2006 but ultimately disbanded on April 20, 2008, when the brainchild and only member of the project, José Barragán, was killed in a fire.

On the 10 year anniversary of Barragán's passing, *Redemption of the Flesh*, the project's debut, was re-released through The Bearded Dragon Productions.

## History

Flatorophia began in 2006 in Quito, Ecuador out of the continent of South America. In that year alone, the project recorded and released two separate releases - the project's sole album *Redemption of the Flesh* and a 4 Way Split titled *Sin Mutilation* along with Demonic Dismemberment, Vomitous Discharge, and Eternal Mystery. The following year, in 2007, Flactorophia released another split album alongside the aforementioned three bands and two others, Engravor and Vomitorial Corpulence.

The six bands even recorded a track altogether, titled "Sin Decomposition", with Chris Valentine (Vomitorial Corpulence) on Bass and Drums, Broc Toney (Eternal Mystery) on Guitars, and Barragan, Alastair "Alspal" Jack (Engravor), Gag (Vomitous Discharge) and Hayden (Demonic Dismemberment).

In 2008, the project released a 4-way split, titled *Whorevisceration*, alongside Lacerated Tissue, Nothin' Suss, and Smallpox Aroma. Only 21 days after the release of the split, Barragán, five members of Zelestial, and nine others died in a fire at a concert on April 20, 2008.

In 2018, a label known as The Bearded Dragon Productions re-released Flactorophia's debut album, *Redemption of the Flesh*, which came out on April 20, 2018, on the 10 year anniversary of Barragan's passing. The band would also be featured on an article written by Hit Killer.
