Hard 20

Sepultura

"Dante XXI"
(SPV)
by Chris Forbes

Now I had been a big fan of this band, even seening them on their 1st US tour back in 1998 w/ Death Angel. I lost interest in the band after the horrible 'Chaos A.D." release and I was interested in hearing what the band sounded like now. This is a great release. The band has got back to what brought them to the dance and the speed/thrashy parts, crush all. This is one of the few bands that create a good groove style and mix it in with bone crushing fast thrash parts. Now this is what I am talking about! All those wanna be groove bands need to take a lesson from these guys. 15 tracks in all and even the vocals, which I am not a huge fan of, being that they trend into the tough guy sound too much at times, aren't bad. The production is right on the money. Welcome back guys. Info: http://www.spvusa.com
