Ultimo Mondo Cannibale is the debut album by American band Impetigo. It was released in 1990 and was a major influence in the grindcore and goregrind scene.[2] It is one of the first albums to use sound segments from horror films as intros for their songs (the title itself refers to the same named Italian cannibal movie by Ruggero Deodato). Another of the first bands to use this technique is Spanish grindcore band Machetazo.

The cover had to be changed because it was too graphic and violent. The original cover, and most of the Impetigo artwork, was drawn by band frontman Stevo Dobbins.
