It's Sepultura...After Death!

by JiggyJay Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jul 17 '03
Pros: The Brazilian band’s finest record, best songs, awesome unison and instrumentation
Cons: Hmm…let me tink…I’ll get back to you on that
Introduction I’ve been a Sepultura fan for a little over three months now (with my first r ...

Chaos A.D. Is Simply Incredible

by marty1982 , Apr 18 '03
Pros: Generally rocking metal songs, interesting and insightful lyrics, unique brand of "Tribal elements."
Cons: A couple skip-worthy tracks, somewhat pointless 13th track in the non-remaster.
In late 1993, Sepultura released their metal-masterpiece Chaos A.D. The album marked a reasonable departure from their last two thrash/death metal classics Arise and Beneath The Remains with notably slower tempos, more punk/hardcore influences (Which...

Dancing on METALLICA's grave

by silktempest Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Sep 07 '07
Pros: SEPULTURA for a while had the weight of the world on their shoulders...They delivered
Cons: Unfortunately, you have a sole remaining classic SEPULTURA record before resorting to SOULFLY
There's something wrong in the world when a Belo Horizonte (my hometown) band sells a million copies. Not in Brazil. I'm not talking about SKANK (which by the way sold 2 million copies twice). SEPULTURA ("Grave") reached these heights with their ...

Well, So Much For That Idea

by major7th , Aug 20 '08
Pros: Cool, if completely out of place, "tribal" stuff; the track "Biotech is Godzilla"
Cons: Generic droning "groove" riffs, poor vocals, mostly lacking in power or heaviness
For a long time, Sepultura had always been one of those bands whose name I heard occasionally but I’d never really bothered to check out their music. Fortunately, iTunes now has a feature that allows you to browse the libraries of any other iTunes user ...

One of the Most Innovative Albums of All time

by STPezatcha , May 11 '00
Pros: Rhythms, Fusion of Different Genres, Drums
Cons: Its impossible to find this album...Sepultura is no more.
Many people are clueless when it comes to the band Sepultura. Sepultura when translated in Portuguese means “Bloody Grave”. The Brazilian band perhaps changed the face of metal forever when they released "Chaos AD", an album that is beyond...

Chaos A.D. is a heavy metal classic

by designerx51 , Mar 05 '01
Pros: Great well written songs and riffs. Supercharged with metal attitude.
Cons: Some would say they get tired of the vocals, but I think they are great.
I have had this CD for about five years now and it is one of the best representations of straight heavy metal at its peak.

RIFFAGE: The guitars on this Cd are incredible!! Never a boring repetitive riff in any song. Sepultura always finds...

Last of Greatness

by mulambo15 , Jun 28 '02
Pros: Pounding riffs, screaming vocals, and intelligent lyrics
Cons: Proves to be the ending of a great Sepultura run.
This album is easily one of Sepultura's finest to ever reach the shelves of music stores throughout the world. But that opinion may vary from person to person. While it is quite clear that Sepultura in no way became wusses or pansies in any way shape or...

Experiments And The Chaos It Brings

by nocturialbc , May 05 '01
Pros: Quality riffage, more straight forward and accessible than previous releases.
Cons: Slight commercial shine to it
Thrash metal was explosive at it's foundry, ripping in the mainstream and found coughing in the gutter in the early 90's. Perhaps the most extrodinary part of the whole scene was the passion that bands had to create music that would appeal to a whole new...

Brazilian thrash + punk = one great album

by thetoolsofwar , Nov 26 '99
Pros: heavy music, socially aware lyrics, strong album overall
Cons: profanity and pictures inside the CD will offend some
"Chaos A.D." is definitely my favorite Sepultura album, because they managed to find a great balance between their original thrash metal style and more socially-oriented (or anti-social) punk rock; a lot of this album sounds like later...

Chaos A.D.

by kill2cure , Dec 16 '99
Pros: originality
Cons: absolutelly nothing
This is one of the most unique albums in the metal genre. Max Cavalera (vocal/rhythm guitar) and brother Igor Cavalera (drums/percussion) decided to take metal in a different direction with Sepultura's fifth album, "Chaos A.D". Incorporating...

Chaos A.D. Falls short

by cybergoblin , Feb 28 '02
Pros: Tasty,heavy guitar parts
Cons: Lacks focus and direction
From the tribal drums on the intro to Refuse/Resist, it is clear the Sep's are ushering in a new style and approach to their sound. Some would argue it a bold artist statement, some like myself feel it lacks that which made them so endearing in the...

the politics in metal

by ebisis , Dec 07 '99
Pros: Good sound, good lyrics, great music
Cons: the way the veiws are presented might take away from the message
not to take away from sepultura's musical talent but this album has much more put into it than just musical talent. most of the songs on this album are in the expected style for sepultura but the lyrics in chaos a.d.
are more political than what you...
