Excellent re-recorded album, it sounds dark, evil, there are even more elements of death metal and reminds of Death - Scream Bloody Gore and Necrophagia, the song Nightmares of Delirium and that sound is something I would like to hear on the next Cavalera Conspiracy album, because I think there is no need to re-record other albums.💪🤘

These re-records have been awesome. I agree with you guys that this is the place to stop with them. Now, on to the reunion with Paulo and Andreas!

This is absolutely a killer record. The riffs, combined with the rawness just makes this a treat to listen too. I love how the Cavalera's honor the sound and try to stay very close to the original recording as much as possible.

Amazing job, Arthur Rizk is amazing producer, and i hope for a next Cavalera Conspiracy album in this style without re recording Beneath The Remains and Arise.. Great channel, one of my favorite

I'm two weeks late to your review but I absolutely love this! I think this is my favorite one they've re-recorded. 4.5/5. Badass stuff. Great job Max, Igor, Rizk and crew!

What an absolute slasher of a re-recording by the brothers. It sounds so damn good!

This release sounds absolutely amazing! I HATE re-recordings with a passion. But I've been LOVING these. So excited to hear the rest.

Kudos to the guy who produced these older Sepultura albums. Holy shit it sounds just clear enough that it doesn't give off that too polished sound, but leaves it filthy enough to give it that old school sound. Good golly man, this makes me feel like a teenager again. Sounds so gooooooood to these old ears. Well done. Thanks ToM!

Was jamming this all day at work. They nailed it again.

Dark Funeral just did the rerecording thing with their 1994 EP/mini album. It's getting reissued with the original album in tact, and the rerecorded versions added on to it. As like bonus tracks.

I have weird relationships with first 2 (3?) Sepultura albums. In my head I always referred to Beneath The Remains as the debut. Like with Pantera and Cowboys from Hell. And the re-recordings are kind of putting those albums back there into the discography, somehow.

This album is my favorite album from Sepultura. I remember listening to it and it just opened my mind completely. It was also strange that my friends who weren't into any kind of deathmetal loved this album too

They should now re-record Against to see if they can turn a turd into a Crumbl cookie.

I'm going to have to pick this up today. Great review as always! 🤘🤘

Jammin Jon channeled his inner Muffy The Mouse with his rhyme laden closer.

To clarify a couple inquiries you guys had here, both answers based on what Max has said on socials posts regarding this release: One, this will in fact be the last re-recording they do. Two, the last track, along with the final tracks on the other two recently released re-recordings, are NEW songs, not old ones that were never released. All the more reason I hope they keep working on new material into the future. First four Cavalera Conspiracy albums are all fucking great front-to-back and the three new tracks kick ass as well and would indicate that if they released a completely new album, it would sound as if 80s-early 90s Sepultura were releasing new material.

Brilliant once again. It's great to hear those first three releases retooled. Like I said for the last two, tonnes of fun and crushing production; they really show how pioneering those early songs were. My one comment with this would be that it feels strange not hearing Andreas' guitar on Schizophrenia, given that it was his debut. That said, Max and Igor earned the right. The fact that Sepultura turned in a career-high album as their last with Quadra, and Max and Igor are rerecording these early records; it's been a great time to be a fan of this band in all it's guises. Jon nailed it when he said Arthur strikes the balance between modern and organic; this could be a well-produced early 90s metal album. Igor sounds 👌J

In the press-release, Max stated: “The Third World Trilogy is finally complete with Schizophrenia, Bestial Devastation, and Morbid Visions, all three Brazilian underground gems!". So I don't think, they are coming for Beneath the Remains. And regarding the name, I think all the business with dropping Conspiracy has something to do with Nuclear Blast Records. They released all the re-record albums and listed the band as "Cavalera" on the official site, with remakes the only ones in the discography. It's either the label, or they can't use the name with out Marc Rizzo. At some point they started to list the line-up as Max/Iggor/Rizzo, regardless who played the bass on albums or tours. So maybe he owns a part somehow. I don't know, they still add Conspiracy at some of the art cover and have it in the Spotify catalog in my country.

Morbid and Bestial new versions were fantastic. This is one is absolutely fantastic too. The original sound was a little rough with those previous albums, so I feel better about this much beefier production. The similar but better artwork from Eliran is awesome. The thing that does worry me though is BTR and Arise have perfect production and I’d rather they left those as is. You just mentioned that exact point as I typed it 😁

Some of the only re recorded material that’s worth the price of admission - I do wonder if they’ll do Beneath, Arise etc. I don’t think those ones needed a refresher like the first 3 did. But I’d still be stoked to hear what they’d do now. Also Arthur Rizk is the king for sure!

These re-recordings have been a revelation. Everything good about modern production without any of the bad. If the brothers want to redo Beneath the Remains, it's fine by me.

Sick Morpheus Descends shirt dude...they rule! I've got a Morpheus Adipocere shirt pre adding the Descends part to the name.

I don't remember the original too much, I'm ashamed to say. Beneath the Remains was my intro, didn't go back before that. Going in blind to this one. Really good. Reminds me in parts of early Sodom, Kreator and Death. Igor's drumming is awesome. The fills!! Max sounds good too. I prefer this to the other two reissues. Stronger songs. Digging it!

its a very well done re-recording, perhaps a little heavy on the re-verb vocal wise, but I love the old-school vibes. the last track is amazing too

Again Max and Igor did a Killer Job!! Love those new Recorded Albums!! Fantastic work!! 💀💀💀💀💀💀

I agree with everything you guys reviewed on the albums. I thought the same thing. The 1st 3 were in need of being brought up to standards, or at least more palatable. Schizophrenia has always been one of my fav metal albums. The riffage is insane, as is all of Max's material. The drumming is exactly where it should be, and the sound overall has given me a new lease on the metal life/community. It's been a great year for metal so far, the best I think we've seen in decades. The new material put out in the past 2 years is incredible. Got new Cannibal Corpse, got new Deicide, new Suffocation, new Cavalera (soon to reclaim Sepultura, imo) Funny how they go through these phases of saying metal is dead, but it's more ALIVVVE than ever. BUT, I also agree that they need to stop the re-recordings now. Beneath the Remains and up don't need any work. They all are damn perfect.

Out of curiosity are you guys planning on reviewing the new Evildead album Toxic Grace? I don't mean that to sound snarky or whatever, I'm just wondering. Got the album on cd and it's been growing on me the more I listen to it. F.A.F.O is my favorite Thrash song released so far this year. Yeah I said that and I mean it. Killer tune. Reverie and Raising Fresh Hell are great follow up tunes. Stupid On Parade is another great song with arguably Phil's best vocals on the album imo. World Ov Rats is a nice instrumental into the song Fear Porn which is my 2nd favorite song on the album next to F.A.F.O.. Tremendous.🤘

Oddly enough, the physical copies do NOT say "Conspiracy" on them, but the album covers as displayed on streaming services DO say it. Wonder why that is.

Definitely like this album as well. I hope they continue with this sound and style with new original material. That would be awesome.

I'm really enjoying what the Cavalera bros have done with these re recordings! I just hope they never mess with Beneath the Remains or Arise.

I didn’t think this needed a re recording and I totally agree that they don’t need to do any other albums. I’ll check it out on Spotify but probably won’t get a physical copy.

I love the new production, sounds amazing. I never got that into Schizophrenia cause of the shitty sound, so it’s almost like a new old Sepultura album for me, ha. Totally has a death metal edge. The reverb on vocals is great too.

I love this a lot. I'm one of those metalheads that doesn't care so much about production. but yeah this really gives the album just a lot more punch.

Curious for your take on the new Replacire album. One of the cooler death metal albums this year for me

as much as i love the orginial(in fact its my favorite sepultura album) this re recording is great

What I actually did was listening to both kinda of doing a side by side -track by track comparison. Made this a quite enjoyable listening experience. 🇧🇷

10/10, easily. It’s sounds fucking incredible. This is probably the biggest “upgrade” of an album I’ve ever heard. Max and Igor absolutely crushed it.

Personally, I would like to see them do Beneath the Remains next, and then they can stop.

I watched the Graspop Metal Meeting live stream and Max and Igor were playing songs from this album. They still got it!

It's so good. It keeps the soul of THE OG but just gives it just a bit more. They definitely got a good vibe going with the re records

Fantastic release! Blasted this earlier! 4 of 5!🤘🖤🔥😈

agreed, last one that needs the remake.

Ngl, Schizophrenia sounded good in its original recording. It was raw but more focused and more tuned up. I love that they re recorded Bestial and Morbid Visions. This still sounds evil, better and fucking killer, and yeah I REEEEEEEEEEEEALLY hope they do stop here as far as rerecording old school Sepultura. -Ezzgar

Do I dare dream they will re record Beneath the Remains and Arise?

Bought it today, love it 🔥🔥🔥

So, what is next? Beneath the Remains? Arise? Do we really want this? And with a different band name? I really believe this is a very bad idea. Anyway!

You're right they didn't skip a beat. It's almost like the original recording never existed and you have fifty five year old's turning back as twenty year old's and recording it for the first time. That's what this sounds like. Killer shit. I kind of want beneath the remains. I guess we'll see.

I feel they might do BTR and Arise too now.

Got my copy today and loving it. That’s 3/3 but as you guys noted, it has to end here. All credibility will be lost if Beneath is re-recorded.

The first 2 Arthur Rizk rerecordings we killer.

I thought that this Cavalera Conspiracy re-recording of this classic Sepultura album was decent. However, I do prefer the mix and production of the original. Unlike Morbid Visions and Bestial Devastation, the production on Schizophrenia doesn't need to be improved on. If it ain't broke, don't fix it in other words.

I'm not sure they CAN do Remains and Arise. I wonder if these exist due to a shared rights loophole that the first three records have with Cogumelo.

too many idiots asking to re-record Beneath the Remains. the mastering wasn't great but the 2020 re-master makes it perfect now.

Gotta check this release out. Love the original release. I'm seeing Sepultura in October along with Obituary and Agnostic Front and I'm looking forward to it. Buddy of mine added me to the guest list which I greatly appreciate. Yes I changed my av once again after I said I wouldn't in another comment on this channel lmao. I'm fanboying over the new Evildead screw the haters. 🤘

yall gonna review the new hyperdontia album?

“Stop at this one.” That’s exactly right. Loved the original Schizophrenia but this sounds awesome. Beneath the Remains is perfection though. It’s my favourite of all their albums and one of my favourites of all time. If you want to hear a bad re-recording that neuters the original , check out Gorgoroth’s re-recording of Under the Sign of Hell. Love the original, it’s so vicious and nasty. The re-recording is awful, weak and generic sounding.

Will you review Alcest’s new album?

Testaments First Strike Still Deadly was a good re-recording, I think.

For me, Schizophrenia is where classic Sepultura really starts. The previous albums hinted at potential that is unleashed on this one. The production might as well be the only setback of the original, so the rerecording is very welcome 🤘

Any Sumac review upcoming?

First of all "Nick and Jammin Jon" gave a summary full of details about this re-recording up there👍 Production wise it's louder and punchy nowdays the epic 1987 Schizophrenia🤘🎸🥁✅️ thanks to Arthur Rizk. And last but not least yet I hope next year as a "die hard SEPULTURA supporter"🙏 to see the brothers step up on stage to play with Andreas and Paulo once again.. So please Mrs. Gloria, for God sake, don't ruin this opportunity to happen cuz is about those four legit musicians and it's NOT about you period.

Fuck yeah 👍🤘

This album sounds fucking rad - still retains the feel of the original which I fucking ruined on cassette back in the day

I’ll give this a listen, but honestly I’m not that interested to be honest. Unlike Bestial Devastation and Morbid Visions, which had objective issues with the performances and production, the original version of this album was very good and, in my opinion, didn’t need a re-recording. Compared to the debut album and the EP, the original Schizophrenia was tight, cohesive, and performed very well. It was a massive improvement on the debut. I understand Max and Igor doing these re-recordings, and to his credit, Max sounds great, almost better than he did in his prime. But I categorize this under the same category as things like Let There Be Blood and First Strike, Still Deadly; well-performed but ultimately unnecessary, in my opinion. But, I’m aware the nostalgia sells, so there will be a lot of people really into this, which is good, but I don’t see myself listening to this often. Great video as usual gentlemen🤘

If it's that bad, you at least have the song Septic Schizo to fall back into. 👻

Another killer record from Max 4/5

Honestly, I REALLY enjoyed this. I don't want to be babyears, but I really struggled listening to the original. It's a great album don't get me wrong, but the overall recording/production is kinda lackluster. BUT the re-recording kicks ass and hearing modern production on a death/thrash classic is a chef's kiss 👌.

This one even sounds more like the OG recording, it doesn't sound that much different on the first couple of listens that the original. I can see an argument for re-recording the first two releases (Morbid & Bestial ) since the production was soooo rough on those, but this... this? I really feel that all the $$$, time and effort put into this project w/ Arthur Rizk would have been better spent on writing and releasing all new thrash/speed material from the brothers Cavalera. I'm happy with my 1998 gold CD remaster of this album, the OG recordings are GOAT. This felt very unnecessary.

I'm anticipating a 4.5 rating from both of you. Maybe even a 5.

Btr and arise are perfect I don’t think they will re-do those. Give us a decent live album instead of more re recordings

Who thinks that re-recording of old album is only to have rights to it back ? For me for example re-recording PARADISE LOST "Icon" was nothing more than only so they can get the rights back. The same here for me. Of course, it sounds little bit better, but original version has more "spirit" for me.

I don't like the echo on the vocals, otherwise it's interesting.

Inquisition Symphony > Call of Ktulu, fight me….

Awesome album! But i still prefer the original 😊

your reviews are the best! but I don't like the new guy, Rotting Robert. hehe it's a joke, he doesn't exist.

I prefer my old school metal to sound old school. No need to modernize it.

Holy fuck this wasn't needed... original is great ....🐐🔪

I don't get the hate for Let There Be Blood. Bonded by Blood is a classic granted, but Baloff was a terrible vocalist. This Schizophrenia however is a f**king beast!!!

Wish theyd played it at the same tempo as original Its too fast and looses atmosphere

All the people saying it sounded fine... Are we listening to the same album? To me it always sounded like it was recorded on a cassette player under a wet blanket. Kinda muffled, zero punch and just weak sounding.

Not a fan of remaking these songs. It's completely unnecessary. Sure it could be good, but it's because the songs already are good. It always comes off as a money grab.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! Eh, I’ll probably skip this one to be honest. Re-recording just seems kinda pointless to me.

like if the original is bad shut up

No interest in this..cash grab
