Jesus "Jesse" Ernesto Pintado Andrade (July 12, 1969 – August 27, 2006) was a Mexican-American guitarist best known as a guitarist for the British grindcore band Napalm Death.

Pintado was born in Empalme, Sonora, Mexico^{[citation needed]} and moved to the US at an early age. He lived in Huntington Park, California but moved to Birmingham, England after he joined Napalm Death.

Pintado started in the grindcore band Terrorizer where he recorded the album World Downfall, the first album to feature Pete Sandoval who would later leave the band to join Morbid Angel.

Pintado joined Napalm Death in 1989, where he replaced guitarist Bill Steer immediately prior to the recording of their album Harmony Corruption.

In 2004, he officially left Napalm Death; instead of replacing him, the band has since continued as a four-piece. Pintado later revived Terrorizer, recruiting Tony Norman of Monstrosity and Anthony Rezhawk of Resistant Culture; he and Pete Sandoval were the only original members.

Besides Terrorizer and Napalm Death he also played in Lock Up and Brujeria. Both bands also featured Napalm Death bass player Shane Embury.

Pintado died in 2006 at Erasmus MC hospital in Rotterdam, Netherlands of liver failure.^[1]
