The four guys from Belo Horizonte, in the south-central part of Brazil, have recently released the album "Chaos A.D." At the end of 1993, Max, Igor, Andreas, and Paulo Jr., as a corollary to the record, step back into the fray with a single consisting of three frenetic tracks.
Fire and flames right from the artwork; resulting in an apocalyptic sonic magma. A handful of minutes, not even nine, of urban auditory devastation.
Igor's percussive and tribal drumming properly introduces "Territory"; the Thrash guitars with industrial echoes enter after a few seconds. It's Max's pressing and raw voice that dictates the syncopated rhythms of the long track; a groove and heaviness that harks back to the prehistoric monoliths that grace the cover. They're at war, we're at war: so declare Sepultura in the official video.
And already it's time for "Policia," a cover by the unknown fellow compatriots Titas, and "Biotech Is Godzilla," which features the involvement in the lyrics by a certain Jello Biafra (God descended among us!!). The speed of the band's execution doubles, even triples; old school Thrash-Hardcore. Furious, raging, bastards, and pissed off like in the days of "Arise" and "Inner Self."
Personally, the band's career ends here for me; the subsequent work "Roots" never caught me, apart from a few individual songs. After Max's departure, nothingness, the desert...REFUSE / RESIST...
Ad Maiora.
