TS: Sepultura - Roots Vs Metallica - Black Album Vs Anthrax - Sound Of White Noise vs Megadeth - Countdown To extinction. The So Called "Sell-Out" albums

This thread makes me want to listen to more Sepultura

Countdown >> Black > White Noise >> Roots

I've done a bit of a 180 on Roots. hated what I heard of it when I came out (and I honestly hate Max's vocals, because he turned his pretty unique bellow into a generic nu-metal scream), but mere generic nu-metal this isn't. percussively, it's interesting, but there are a lot of interesting sounds on the album.

the riffs aren't particularly memorable like classic Sepultura but they aren't meant to be.

some interesting chat on FB where some nutters said chaos ad was the sellout album where they got off the bus.

no, not siegbran lol

the black album is definitely my least favorite of these. sound of white noise is amazing

Its a great record unlike their others

Who is the singer in Anthrax now?

Joey Belladonna.

And yeah it's funny to look back on Sepultura jumping on two consecutive bandwagons - first the groove metal/hardcore thing, and then nu-metal.

it's really cool that they worked with carlinhos brown and brought in batucada percussion, wish i liked the music better.

It's edging towards sellout a bit but it rules and I would've stayed on that bus for a couple more stops.

I saw Joey Belladonna sing the National Anthem at a Vikings game not bragging just saying

through broad stripes and bright stars
through the perilous fight
He's coming, corrupting
Aaaa-mong the liii-iii-viing
