Now with Max Cavalera departing to create Soulfly, that left Sepultura in
urgent need of a singer. Applying for the job as new lead singer, Derrick
Green of Outface & Overfiend. This Cleveland born singer, packs a punch with
his hard-core style of singing with a metal edge. As all Sepultura fans, I
was in wonder if the new singer could hold a light to Max's vocals, & in fact
they're just as good. Sepultura explores a little more of the hard-core side
on 'Against' on 'Reza' (song in Brazilian), 'Drowned Out , 'Against' &
'Hatred Aside'-suppose that is the influence of Mr. Green's. 'Floaters in
the Mud' & 'T3rcermillennium' has a Brazilian feel to it ('Root'ish, shall
we say). The cello makes for an interesting incorporation into
'T3rcermillennium'. Sepultura is as strong as ever on this release, I still
prefer 'Arise' to all other releases from Sepultura. 'Against' offers up an
ultra kool blending of styles, it's worth a listen if for no other reason
than the blending techniques.
