5th album from 1993 by the Brazilian SEPULTURA, one of the most influential and innovative bands in the history of extreme Metal. “Chaos A.D.” marked a major turning point in the band's evolution, incorporating a stronger presence of tribal rhythms, heavy grooves and more direct song structures, while retaining the aggression that had defined their earlier releases.
The album combines the power of Thrash Metal with elements of Groove Metal, Hardcore and Brazilian-inspired percussion, creating a unique sound that greatly expanded the band's audience. Classic tracks such as “Refuse/Resist”, “Territory”, “Slave New World” and “Propaganda” showcase a band at the height of its powers, capable of balancing brutality, social awareness and a strong musical identity.
Widely regarded as one of the essential Metal albums of the 1990s, “Chaos A.D.” firmly established SEPULTURA as a worldwide force and opened new paths of expression for contemporary extreme Metal.
Recommended for fans of PANTERA, MACHINE HEAD, NAILBOMB, PRONG and BIOHAZARD.
