53. Sepultura Roots 1996

An absolute masterpiece of metal and the album that the Max Cavalera era of the band, had spent their musical careers building up to. Sepultura were special and unique in that they were truly able to fuse the cultural heritage of their native Brazil with the brute force of extreme metal. Roots displays groove metal meets Brazilian tribal rhythms and the bands genuine anger against the inequality of Brazilian society seems at its zenith here.
