Progressive Latin metal artist Manuel has launched the official music video for Ladrón, a standout track pulled from the acclaimed EP Parasite, out now via Wormholedeath Records. Filmed at Grime Studios and produced in collaboration with Chuck Martin Productions, the visual companion translates the song’s heavy themes directly onto the screen.

Set against a raw, industrial backdrop, the performance piece captures the pure emotional intensity at the core of the track. The song seamlessly fuses progressive metal structures with distinct Latin rhythms, using an immersive cinematic storytelling approach to tackle the harrowing real-world impacts of exploitation, systemic greed, and human resistance.

A major highlight of the single is a compelling guest vocal feature from Patrice Elizabeth Vigeant, whose haunting delivery injects a profound sense of urgency into the arrangement. To handle the expansive sonic scope of the project, the track was mixed and mastered by Evan Sammons, who balanced the crushing instrumentation with Vigeant’s vocal depth to maximize the dynamic range.

As a core piece of Parasite, the song continues Manuel’s overarching exploration of social inequality and the human cost of broken systems. The new video serves as a gripping companion piece, weaponizing both sound and imagery to reinforce a message of resilience against oppressive forces.
