It’s definitely worth the re-recording. I hope they write some original music with this sound and style. But who knows what these guys will do especially with Max in so many projects. Cheers JC
On October 25th, Portuguese black metal act Gaerea will be releasing their fourth studio album, entitled Coma. It will be their first album with guitarist [and now only original member] Guilherme Henriques taking over on vocals while still handling lead guitar as well as the first with female member Sonja Schringa on guitar.
Great review John! I wanted to listen to it before watching your review, which I have now. I think the production is fantastic, much better than the original. The reissue I have the guitars are quite hard to interpret what they're playing, so it's great to hear what they're really playing. The vocals definitely sound different to the original, they went with the echo sound like on Morbid Visions. Inquisition symphony sounded incredible, never heard it sound so good! I cannot fault the guitar solos, they sound just like Andreas to my ears. The drumming is immense, and that new track is cool. I don't know if it's completely new or taken from old demos. However, I feel like there are some differences I don't like. Firstly, I think the intro was slightly different, not sure weather that's down to copyright or not. Just sounded different to how I remembered. The outro of "To the Wall" was totally different, I didn't get why they changed it. And the instrumental "The Abyss" is a completely different song, sounds nothing like the original. I don't know if it has anything to do with Andreas composing the whole piece by himself, just found it very strange why it was so different. Overall I thought it was really cool, I'm not sure if I'll pick it up. But I hope they don't do any more re-recordings because it'll just get ridiculous. It was fine re-recording the first 2 Sepultura releases because they needed it, this is far enough. Nice one 🤘🏻🤘🏻
@@jcrockandmetalreviews Yeah, definitely! They should be left how they are, they don't need to be re-recorded. I think Max said he only wanted to do Bestial, Morbid and Schizophrenia because of the production. So he'll be going against his own word if he does the others
John! I don't like re-recordings or remasters. I prefer original sound. I'm glad I have all the original Megadeth recordings. The remasters are terrible. I don’t even know if you can find an original KIMB album. I'm happy mine is original. Rock on! 🤘🏼
Hi John!!! I have mixed feelings about re-recordings.... sometimes they're well done and adds something new to the old stuff, but in some cases, it's just a cash grab. I have not heard this new one, but it think the main improvement has to be the production and new technology used in the recording.... They shouldn't do more, maybe live as "homages" but in the studio. cheers and be well
Yeah, I think it was becasue they wanted a better production value, but I don0t think they need to remake any of the others becasue Beneath the Remains and Arise are better left alone.
I LOVED the re-recordings of Bestial Devastation & Morbid Visions. they were so poorly recorded, the re-recordings brought them to life. I dont feel that way about "Schizophrenia". that was PERFECT the way it was. sure its a rough production, but it doesnt hinder the songs at all. it sounds great the way it was. plus Andreas' solo's were perfection. there was nothing to improve or gain by re-recording. I also feel that Igor has lost his edge with age and doesnt play the Schizophrenia songs as well. theyre not quite there tempo wise. the original will always be the best.

Yeah, he probably releases about 2 albums every year.

Cool. I remember that they released an album not too long ago.
Nice thorough review of the re-recording of Sepultura's Schizophrenia, John.
Thanks, glad you liked it.
I turned it off after to the wall. Just felt like this album didn't need a remake. Liked beating and morbid remakes though
Yeah, that's cool. Sometimes the original is enough

Yes, that is what I think. No need to re-record Beneath the Remains or Arise. They are fine as is.

Yeah I heard about the Megadeth remasters. I still have most of my original CDs

Ok, Travis is the bass player with Pig Destroyer and Guitar player for this album. Got it.
it is a downgrade from the 1987 album.
That's cool I heard a couple people say the same
Is it me or young Igor Cavalera looks like Shakira 😂
Yeah I know. I've seen memes about that.
I think it's the other way around.
