Pur essendo probabilmente la più grande esportazione musicale del Brasile, quando le leggende del metal estremo SEPULTURA persero il loro frontman e membro fondatore Max Cavalera nel 1996, dopo l’influente album Roots, molti pensavano che la band non si sarebbe mai più ripresa. Tuttavia i Sepultura trovarono a Cleveland il veterano della scena punk e hardcore dell’Ohio Derrick Green, colui che avrebbe guidato la band con potere e convinzione attraverso questa nuova era della propria carriera.

Il 22 ottobre 2021 BMG pubblicherà “Sepulnation – The Studio Albums 1998-2009”, un boxset celebrativo della seconda fase della band brasiliana contenente gli album “Against”“Nation”“Roorback”“Dante XXI” e “A-Lex”, tutti rimasterizzati alla metà della velocità. Inoltre “Roorback” conterrà l’EP “Revolusongs”, disponibile per la prima volta in digitale,  con brani e cover di band quali Devo, Exodus, U2 e Massive Attack. Disponibile il video della cover dei Public Enemy di “Black Steel In The Hour Of Chaos”: https://youtu.be/WcVHZFGkeC8

“Sepulnation” è disponibile per il preorder nei formati 8LP e 5CD a questo link: https://sepulturaband.lnk.to/SepulnationPR

Il commento di Derrick Green:
“È un onore e un privilegio essere parti della storia dei Sepultura, sono orgoglioso di tutto il lavoro che abbiamo fatto assieme. Long live the Sepulnation!”

Any fans who feared that this new line-up of Sepultura would see the band taming their intense and heavy approach were not left disappointed when ‘Against’ came out of the traps in 1998. With the powerhouse that is Iggor Cavalera still on drums (he remained for four of the five albums), Andreas Kisser’s grinding guitars and bassist Paula Jr’s heavy bottom end powered behind Derrick Green’s guttural roar and Sepultura sounded heavier and more forceful than ever. This period would see the band continue to push their sound forward and challenge new sounds and styles, but they never lost sight of what was the core of the band. The righteous, rebellious nature remained with the 1998 album ‘Nation’ calling for ‘one nation, Sepulnation,’ – a rallying cry that stayed with the band throughout their long and challenging career.
