Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - 3/21/96, p.98
3 Stars - Good - "...Sepultura play a violent game of sonic overload....the band uses its catharsis as a creative force, funneling torrents of noise into a tunnel of hate..."
Spin - 4/96, p.110
6 - Reasonably Good - "...takes the rain-forest chants and street drumming flavor that flickered through the firestorm of CHAOS A.D. even further....Sepultura's ethnography...[is] about sound--heavy bloco drumming and crushing guitars were made for each other..."
Q - 7/01, p.91
Included in Q's "50 Heaviest Albums of All Time".
Q - 3/96, p.103
3 Stars - Good - "...it's constructed of ferocious throat bending and huge riffs that support their growling menace, while simultaneously doffing a cap to their ethnic ancestors..."
Melody Maker - 2/17/96, p.34
"...the aural equivalent of being caught in a midfield by a PCP-fuelled defensive line from the Pittsburgh Steelers....this is [not] a mere metal barrage....There's ruthless rap attacks...the murderous electronic whining...the tribal chants and Brazilian ragga metal duets..."
NME (Magazine) - 2/24/96, p.46
7 (out of 10) - "...a host of strange and traditional instruments has given Sepultura new formats for their extreme displeasure..."
