It's hard to believe that Sepultura have already been around for twelve years, especially after listening to the band's latest release, 'Against'.

Ferocious, fresh, raw, powerful, angry - all of these words describe 'Against'. You'd never know this was the band's first recording with their new vocalist Derrick Green. It's as if this is the same exact band that's been playing together for the past dozen years. The songs are fast and furious, the guitars slashing, the drums bruising. Green's vocals are roughly intense. Sepultura fans will be pleased to learn that - despite all the trouble their favourite band has endured over the years - they continue to survive. Highlights include the punk-flavoured 'Hatred Aside', the stunningly original 'T3cermillenium' and 'Choke'.

Max who?
