Brazil's most renowned metal export, Sepultura, is preparing to conclude an extraordinary career that has spanned over four decades. As they approach the end of this year, they are gearing up to close this final chapter. With more than 40 years of experience, 14 gold records, and performances in over 80 countries, Sepultura stands as one of the most influential metal bands of today.

They are currently embarked on the 'Celebrating Life Through Death' farewell tour, and they are preparing one of their most diverse and emotional releases to date, The Cloud of Unknowing EP, set to be released on April 24th via Nuclear Blast Records. Across four tracks, this EP offers a bittersweet farewell, showcasing the full range of the band’s creativity and reflecting both the intensity and depth that have defined SEPULTURA’s legacy.

SEPULTURA have today released EP track 'The Place', in which vocalist Derrick Green sheds some light on:

“This song deals with immigrants who have come to a place seeking refuge and start a new life.

Once assimilated into a false sense of security and relentless propaganda they began to act out against what they hate about themselves. The transition begins to escape from the self hatred and the lashing out against people who believed in the same ideas. I feel the lyrics truly follow the transitions of the song. Starting with disappointment and arriving at anger.”

The Cloud of Unknowing EP will be available in the following formats: Oxblood

Sepultura began their journey in 1986 with the release of their legendary debut LP 'Morbid Visions', later coining their brand of roots metal as 'Death Thrash'. They soon captured the attention of the Dutch Rock Records label RoadRunner Records. They soon became a major force in the eighties and nineties, producing legendary records such as 'Beneath the Remains'(1989), 'Chaos A.D' (1993) and 'Roots' (1996). The band were formed by the Cavalera brothers, Igor and Max, in 1984 in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, before they departed in 1997 and 2006, respectively. There are no original members left, even though bassist Paulo JR remains the longest serving member. He is joined by American vocalist Derrick Green, guitarist Andreas Kisser and drummer Greyson Nekrutman.

Album Review: Death Assault- Self-Titled

Image
  Art Coverwork courtesy of San PR Rambling Man's Reviews introduces another exciting British Metal band this week. Death Assault is a quintet from Plymouth, England . Last week, they released their eleven-track, self-titled debut album . The release showcases modern metal characterised by harsh vocals , long, winding breakdowns, and goosebump-inducing riffs, reflecting a band on a serious path of destruction. They have been compared to Lamb of God and Slayer , particularly due to their groove-oriented riffs and aggressive vocals , as well as to Slipknot , which evokes a sense of having emerged from the metal scene twenty years ago. Like many fast-emerging bands, they formed after the pandemic era in 2022, and they comprise of  Darrell Baker (vocals), Bill Mander (guitar), Jake Ackrell (guitar), Wiktor Osiecki (bass), and Levi Spry (drums). The band follows up on their 2023 debut EP with a raw, unrelenting, and ferocious display of angst, anger, and frustration. Death A...

With an accompanying music video, “Goliath” slows the tempo with winding, malevolent leads, powerful drums, and ominous string work by violinist Katie Jacoby , complemented by intricate guitar playing from the legendary Gary Holt . Even after 40 years since their debut, Exodus. continue to soldier on. The band's highly anticipated 12th studio album is their most dynamic release to date, featuring several collaborations and marking the return of Rob Dukes as lead vocalist.  EXODUS on “Goliath”: "'Goliath' may quite possibly be the heaviest thing we have ever done, and certainly the slowest song in our catalog, as close to doom metal as Exodus we get! Just pure evil, as sinister as it gets, featuring our friend Katie Jacoby, who laid down 18 tracks of strings in the middle harmony section, maki...
