Jesse Pintado (July 12, 1969August 27, 2006) was a lead guitar player born in Mexico who at an early age moved to the US. He started in the band Terrorizer where he recorded the grindcore album World Downfall, the first album to feature Pete Sandoval who would later leave the band to join Morbid Angel.


Replacing guitarist Bill Steer he joined Napalm Death immediately prior to the recording of their album Harmony Corruption. In 2004 he officially left Napalm Death and revived Terrorizer with himself & Pete Sandoval being the only original members and recruiting Tony Norman of Monstrosity and Anthony Rezhawk. Whilst in Napalm Death, he had also played with bass-player Shane Embury in Lock up releasing two albums.

With Terrorizer he released in 2006 the album Darker Days Ahead. He also played for Brujeria on their 2000-album Brujerizmo (as Cristo de Pisto).

He lived in Ridderkerk in the Netherlands, and a few weeks after the release of Terrorizer's second album, died in a hospital in the Netherlands due to liver failure[1][2] after a diabetes-induced coma purported to have been brought about by alcoholism.
