Cavalera – Schizophrenia CD

Schizophrenia revisits Sepultura’s landmark 1987 album, with Max and Igor Cavalera re-recording the material with a heavier and more contemporary sound while preserving the raw aggression of the original compositions. The result is a brutal collision of old-school thrash, death metal and primitive extreme-metal intensity.

Unlike Morbid Visions, which represented Sepultura’s primitive beginnings, Schizophrenia captures the band at a crucial point in their development already becoming more technical, ambitious and musically adventurous.

For fans of the classic material, this is an interesting reimagining of a pivotal album: fierce, fast and uncompromising, but delivered with the power and clarity of a modern recording.
