SEPULTURA: Albums Ranked (From Worst to Best) - Rank 'Em All
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 чер 2024
- In todays video I'm going to rank Sepultura's full discography. Sepultura is a Brazilian extreme metal band and the most successful South American metal band of all time. Albums like Beneath the Remains, Arise, Chaos A.D. and Roots made them superstars but in the 90's Sepultura modified their sound and Max Cavalera left the band after 1996's Roots and then the bands popularity faded a bit. But Andreas Kisser and Paulo Jr. has kept the band going ever since. While the cavalera bros have been busy with projects like Soulfly and Cavalera Conspiracy. So today we're going to rank all Sepultura albums, from the worst stinker to the greatest masterpiece. Enjoy!

Morbid Visions, Schizophrenia, Beneath the Remains, Arise, and Chaos A.D. are definitely my favorites. When it comes to Brazilian Thrash Metal, I think of Sepultura 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Cheers!
So, their only good albums then lol fair enough
Beneath the Remains was the first metal album I ever owned when I was 13. It started me off on a life long journey. For me the only Sepultura that matters is from 85 to 91. I wear my morbid visions shirt with pride even if the band fell off
yeah, shit happens, during a few years there they were excellent and that's all that matters. Cheers! 🤘
My favorite album
Glad to see more metal heads supporting pride m. Keep metal lgbt safe
@@carpal08bro what
I would have Roots much higher but I respect your opinion. Beneath The Remains is easily my favorite from them. Interesting ranking. Great band!
it's way too much of a nu metal record. I only really listen to the top 5 albums of their discograpy. the rest is skippable. :D Cheers!
Roots is awful. Where is bestial devastation
@@ChaosAD187 No Roots is innovative brilliance.
@@ChaosAD187 Classified as an EP so not on this list
Beneath the Remains is a clear number one for me. After that Arise and Schizophrenia are pretty much level. I do like Chaos AD, but as the 90s went on I lost interest and haven't heard anything they've done in years.
Cheers!
Totally agree with you and RM. This is exactly how I stoped listening to new Sepultura creations
It's been a few years since I've checked them out as well other than checking out enough songs off of each album to guarantee they get no money out of my wallet, although there drummer now is a freaking beast
Especially in the Max era, I was always so impressed by how many different riffs Sepultura could cram into one song. Brilliant change ups all over the place. I wonder how many riffs these guys have that never even made it onto an album.
yeah, they were on a run there. Cheers!
Arise is dominant in my opinion. Vocals, guitar, environment, and artwork are all amazing.
good stuff, Cheers! 🤘
I second this
Love every song, every riff, every solo on it.
YESSS BITCH
My favorite record has always been Schizophrenia. Thanks for the new content, top notch as always!!
it's amazing! Cheers!
Couldn’t agree more with this ranking, top 5 and then everything after I could care less about, I still remember when I had Arise and Beneath the Remains on constant repeat for a few years, I definitely preferred their earlier sound
Same here, Cheers!
I love Beneath the Remains and Arise and Chaos AD. Those are such great albums from Sepultura.
Cheers!
Agree, this is their top 3.
Excellent! I am old enough to have bought Morbid Visions when it first arrived in the states, and remember how incredibly awesome and unique this Brazilian band sounded. I became an immediate fan, and even hung out with them for a bit at a show in Chicago. Also, great job putting the underrated Schizophrenia in the top 4 where it belongs. And while I think Arise has the bands finest couple of moments, as a whole it's not as strong as BTR, which is epic from start to finish. Also, you are spot-on with Chaos A.D., which was their last really strong album before they started changing their sound and lineup.
damn, I was pooping in my pants when that one came out. :D Cheers!
Beneath the remains is a phenomenal album . I pretty much lost interest in the band after Arise but it still reinforces my belief that most of the greatest metal albums that have ever come out are from the years 1985 to 1989
Cheers!
In general, there are 2 people who criticizes Sepultura later albums: 1- the one who dislike the more modern/nu/hardcore/groove influences
2- people who think max alone own the band.
They both flaw in many ways.
I agree that the golden age of Sepultura are between the late 80’s and mid 90’s, but Sepultura is a band that always change their style and formation, and Andreas for example, is one of the most underrated riffmakers of all time. “Quadra” and “machine messiah” are both solid albuns, and other works of their late material like “against”, “mediator” or “dante XXI” too. Good riffs, musical estructure, experiments, heavyness... In fact, there are “legendary” albums of the band like morbid visions for example that has a lot of flaws, even if is a important album for extreme metal. I respect people who disagree with me,i don’t wanna force my opinions on anyone, but if you throw away the “tr00 metal” shit that people have (who think every modern metal sucks, just because you’re too old to understand that things change, and pay a eternal homage to the 80’s) and the Max idolatry you can listen to a couple of real good metal albums, and even great pearls for a veteran band that always evolving. I mean, people should open their minds.
Ps: i agree that nation sucks. Is their worst effort so far.
Guilherme Ptp Morbid Vision has a lot of flaws, because because they had a low budget, basic equipment and youngest age. But in 1986, no have bands with the gutural vocals and heavy lyrics beyond the possessed
@@weskleydavid710 yeah, i know the history behind it. It’s possible to see a lot of inspiration of the german school on what Sepultura did. Destruction and Kreator are probably the main influences (i think that pleasure to kill is the major influence, side with possessed, of the birth of death metal) Sure that is an album that pionner extreme metal (even that i think many brazilian bands of the same age, like mutilator, dorsal atlantica or sarcófago did the same type of raw sound and didn’t have the same opportunity to be a global sucesseful band).
yeah, I don't think that Max would have saved them from their decline though, since the decline started when he was already in the band. Some bands are just too experimental that they lose their way, which I think is the case with Sepultura. Cheers!
@@RuthlessMetalYT we definitible do not agree in this one. As a fan of the channel, i can suggest you to do a Napalm Death worst to best? I think we can see a less divisive list on this one.
Agreed. Every band changes after a certain amount of time. However, I like Nation. I find Against and Morbid Visions to be their worst, both first records with each vocalist. I think they were finding themselves with these albums, but they're far from terrible, just not good per sei.
I used to play Beneath the Remains over and over again as if it was the only record that I owned at the time.
Cheers! 🤘
Nice rank! Couldn't agree more, first four are masterpieces and then there's the rest.. if you guys want to hear some of the death/thrash early Sepultura, I strongly suggest to listen to Jairo Tormentor's new band "The Troops of Doom". They put out 2 eps on the last two years and the first full length will be out on april 15th.
Ah, I haven't heard that one, thanks for recommending it.
Great video, even though I like Roots, it was interesting to hear a different opinion. I suspect that you hate the first 4 albums (do to their heavy nu metal influences), but what are your thoughts on Soulfly from 2008 on, since they have included some death/thrash elements in their more modern albums?
yes, I dislike nu metal and modern metal in general, by modern I mean sound, not new bands that play in a more traditional style. Cheers! 🤘
Schizophrenia is painfully under looked, so happy it scored #2 on this ranking. It's my favorite Sepultura album
yeah Schizophrenia is far superior to Chaos AD. Cheers!
The low budget production is the only thing holding Schizophrenia back. If it had the same production as Arise and Beneath the Remains, it could stand alongside those easily. Its still a great album though.
SPOT ON! Got nothing to say other than Bravo! I think that if the production on Schizophrenia was as good as on BeneathTR, it would be hard to pick one as a favourite. Also the EP Bestial Devastation is worth mentioning as imo is better than Morbid Visions.
yeah, anything before chaos AD is gold in my opinion and everything after is not. :D Cheers!
I like Roots but it's a gotta-be-in-the-mood-for-it album. Max's lyrics and vocal performance on it is so anguished and visceral. It is cool they took chances and they were one of the first onto the nu metal scene and showed others how it was done rather than following a trend. But they should have changed the band name once Derrick Green joined - the difference between him and Max is just too jarring and totally changed the vibe of the band and I don't care for it.
I think their decline started before Max left, Chaos A.D. was the first warning of that with the industrial sounding production and the tribal drumming stuff. Cheers!
roots is one of my fav albums from them it has so much hate too
I thought roots was a good album. I love the passion of the titled track
Roots has good songs but it's too long.
And we don't care for your opinion, so it's just fair.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DOING A SEPULTURA LIST. LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING THEM IN CONCERT SOON. THE FIRST FOUR ALBUMS ARE DEFINITELY THE BEST
have fun! Cheers!
'Beneath the Remains' was my introduction to them, so it's my #1. #2-Arise, #3-Chaos A.D. That's really it for me. It always comes back to that
great decade of the '80's. I never new about 'Schizophrenia' or 'Morbid Visions' so from you Jim and other comments, I will check out.
Yeah, check out Schizophrenia and this track: ua-cam.com/video/0wcKuxOkMZE/v-deo.html
Great video, man!
Thank you! Cheers!
I cant live without listening to Beneath the remains, at least once a month, even though I've been listening to this masterpiece since it came out! Great video RM! Keep up with the great job....Could you please, play some parts of the albums when you make the next Rank`em all vid !?!
Copyright issues my friend, unless someone wants to pay me a full salary that won't happen. Cheers!
Might as well just ranked their thrash and death metal albums since you hate so much on groove and nu metal...I'm not a really big fan of Sepultura, but denying the creativity of Chaos A.D. and Roots for incorporating tribal brazilian musical elements and rythms just because you hate everything heavy that came out in the 90s seems a little unfair...but whatever, to each their own...
Cheers! 🤘
I'm with you, I love those albums. They don't stand up to BtR and Arise on consistent quality, but they make for up it by being interesting and creative. I haven't got any interest in the stuff they released without Max (nor anything much Max has done since), and I don't enjoy the albums before BtR much either - so... 4 hits out of 15? It's not a great strike rate, but their peaks were high!
Thanks for the video,🤘
Thank you! Cheers! 🤘
Congratulations! Nice work, man. I imagine your pain and suffering listening all Derrick Green era albuns. I personally like some of them, but I understand they are not easy too appreciate, since it is almost another band, using different references of sound and production.
Yeah, it was a bit dull to go through them all again, I have heard them all before but it's not that pleasant. haha
I only need the first 5 Albums!!
My Number 1 will always be Beneath the Remains!!
This is a great Masterpiece!!
💀🖤💀🖤💀🖤
Same here, Cheers!
Thank you so so much for ranking sepultura man! Appreciate it man👍😎🎸
thank you! Cheers!
🇧🇷🎼 Beneath the Remains is not only Sepultura's best album but one metal's greatest albums
Cheers!
I still think their good. The days of the Cavelera brothers with Andreas Kisser + Paulo Jr. are over. I like Derrick Green. Very loud and rage filled vocals. Paulo, Andreas, drummer you said was good Casagrande. Still pretty good
Cheers!
I'm from Brazil and I'm completly agree with your list. The 3 firsts albuns of the band influences a lot of swedish death metal scene in 90's. I recomend a old live video of Sepultura's concert in Fargest in 89 maybe. It's a insane registar of the best moment of a band in a tour together with Sodom (and many troubles happens in that tour, scatologic things and etc hahaha). Congratulations for your work, I'm already see your documentary about heavy metal bands from Sweden and I love. I'm a great fan of swedish metal. Cheers dude.
Thanks man, I appreciate it. Cheers!
fuck yes!!!!!! first 6 albums are insane! thank you so much broo! apreciated!
Thank you! Cheers!
I completely agree with your ranking. Great, I subscribed 👍🤟💯
Thanks and welcome! Cheers!
This is one of very few offerings i watched straight thru before commenting. Cheers :)
All i bought was, you guessed it, Roots. A 'fit' for the dark years of the mid '90s.
It was OK but never got me to look for anything else.
Maybe a bad place to start ;)
Oh well.
Thanks for the 'rank.
yeah, never start in the mid 90's. ;) Cheers! 🤘
My favourite sepultura is and always will be beneath the remains 🔥🤘🏻💯⚡😈🍺
Cheers!
I'm from Belo Horizonte - Brazil... I live in the same neighborhood where they grew up. To this day it's hard to believe that they managed to be famous around the world. I'm very proud of the band.
yeah, they were really the only metal band from south america that made it big outside south america.
@@RuthlessMetalYT Big in the US*. Because Angra was big in Japan and very well known in europe.
@@SokomoKudiome666 yeah, somewhat big. But Angra was never on the level of Sepultura.
@@RuthlessMetalYT True, i just think your statement was an exaggeration. I love both bands though.
@@RuthlessMetalYT What about Krisiun? They always play at biggest european metal festivals
Dude you’re pretty spot on here! Personally I don’t hate Roots because of the nostalgia of being one of the first cds I ever bought after starting my first job. And I had a friend who lent me Chaos AD so I sorta worked my way backwards! But Beneath is almost always the go to Sep record. Stoked for more! Maybe Carcass?
I don't really listen to Carcass. :) Cheers!
I love Carcass and can give you a good rundown!
3 - Swansong - Good album, but good just doesn't compare to everything else.
2 Reek of Putrefaction - This album sounds like it was recorded in the dirt, which is a shame because the songs are still awesome.
1e - Torn Arteries - Carcass is still making amazing albums even today.
1d - Necroticism - Descanting the Insalubrious - What a tremendous leap in songwriting and production.
1c - Surgical Steel - So many years after the band broke up, they blow everyone away with a new masterpiece.
1b - Symphonies of Sickness - The best of the grind era, with so many memorable riffs, blast beats, dual vocals, and best mix of gore lyrics.
1a - Heartwork - This is a challenger for the best metal album of all time. Flawless the whole way through.
My number 1 always will be Arise. From begining to end. But I totally got your point and arguments. Great video!!!
Cheers!
Saving just one track here and there from the later 90s and nowadays albuns, I totally agree with you! Greetings from Brazil! 🤘🇧🇷
yeah I kinda zoomed out on Sepultura after Chaos A.D. which I guess most people did. Cheers!
@@RuthlessMetalYT just saw them last month on their Quadra tour, fun concert but I don't have the newer albuns, it's was good to hear Slaves of Pain and Infected Voice live!
I personally agree with your assessment of their first four or five albums versus their later stuff. I think Roots was the first album I heard and just wasn't into it. I heard some later stuff and just didn't think the band was for me. Then I stumbled across some pre-93 stuff and was like, wait, this is Sepultura? This is actually awesome!
yeah, same here, chaos ad was the first thing I heard and then Roots came and I lost interest. Cheers!
you are so spot on, your opinion is GOLD.
thanks boss!
I agree Beneath The Remains is their best album…the A side of that album is some of the greatest metal ever made…I was lucky enough to see Sepultura in concert in New York on Halloween 1989…they opened for King Diamond…my first concert, and I found out years later, their first appearance in the United States
And just out of curiosity, I checked here on UA-cam and that live performance is available as “1989 live at the Ritz”
damn, must have been cool. they were label mates back then so it makes sense. Cheers!
Wholeheartedly agree with your list. BtR way up there for me. Keep up with awesome content. Cheers from Slovenia. :D
Cheers!
Great rank! Roots was my first Sepultura album and I can't help but laugh really hard when you said "put it in the rap section along with KoRn & Limp Bizkit", you made my day dude with that. I think Arise is their best album and it was the last great thrash metal album recorded by any 80's band. I agree with your point of Max's departure was not really a factor of they going downhill, just listen to all those awful Soulfly's albums. Sometimes I think Soulfly and Dereck's Sepultura are in a challenge of wich band can put out more bad albums lol. Nevertheless I have heard Quadra is pretty decent so maybe I could give it a try.
haha, yeah, I got some unsubs after that comment but some people can't handle the truth. haha Cheers!
I kinda like Roots, it’s my first Sepultura album I heard of
sorry to hear that. ;) Cheers!
I saw Pantera and Sepultura at the, at the time, the World ampiTheatre. It was Sepultura’s Chaos AD Tour. And Pantera’s was Far Beyond Driven tour 94. I think I got to see them in their prime that day. Both were Awesome🔥🔥🔥
Cheers!
Spot on once again my metal brother, Judas Priest and now this. Nice work! I would like to hear your top rated Saxon! I haven’t looked so if it’s already out, I apologize..
Thanks man. No I haven't done Saxon yet, they have so many albums that it will take forever to go through. haha but some day maybe. ;) Cheers!
@@RuthlessMetalYT I can understand why you would shy away from such an immense library. I also get Saxon isn’t a band I would describe as ruthless metal. What I will say is this, you are so spot on when it comes to music. Such an underrated band as Saxon would immensely benefit from someone like yourself pulling back the curtains for the unfortunate people who haven’t heard it! I completely realize that Saxon has plenty of crappy songs and a few crappy albums, but what I don’t feel is debatable is they also have some solid gold! The reason for asking for Saxon is I so often here you speaking of the progression of different styles of music, you already know Saxon has had its hand in influencing so many bands it’s not even funny! Songs like Dallas 1pm, Motorcycle Man, Heavy Metal Thunder, Midnight Rider, just to name a few! With your platform you could introduce those gems to the masses! I’m into Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth, Venom, Exodus, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Metal Church, DRI, just to name a few. The idea of not having heard Saxon is lame! I seen Saxon open for Judas Priest for the first time a couple years ago. Holy shit those geezers still get it on!!! I will not comment on Current Judas Priest, I used to absolutely love them. Anyways, keep up the killer work brother!
Honoring your name. Nice vid.
haha, yeah quite a negative Ruthless Metal video, but half of their discography is just so bad. :)
1. Schizophrenia
2. Machine Messiah
3. Roots
4. Quadra
5. Arise
6. Chaos A.D.
7. The Mediator...
8. Morbid Visions
9. Beneath the Remains
10. Kairos
11. Roorback
12. Dante XXI
13. A-Lex
14. Against
15. Nation
I really love Sepultura, and I'm usually the first one to defend the Derrick Greene era albums (at least most of them). Beneath the Remains is definitely an amazing album, but I could never get into it as much as I did with the rest.
Cheers!
You hit the nail on the head. The first 4 initial records are the ones I have in my collection. Enough said
yeah, their careers fizzled out, Cheers!
I couldn't agree more with this rank!
Thanks boss, Cheers!
I just wanna refuse/resist this album 🤣😂
hehe. you know it! ;) Cheers!
Dude, do you have a rank from Obituary? If you do would you tell me where is it; if you don't what are you waiting for? Good rank from the Brazilian Masters.
I'm not that heavily into death metal so there are no plans right now to rank their discography since I'm only vaguely familiar with it. Cheers!
@@RuthlessMetalYT hopefully you can gather information on them and give us a list on their stuff. Even if you're not that into them you gotta know how important they are to death metal and metal in general. Keep up the ranks!.
Amazing video as usual. Any plans of ranking motorhead?
when I feel like going through 25 albums. :D haha So not in the near future. Cheers! 🤘
Great countdown. I would place Roots a lot higher because a love that groove/nu metal sound, but if that sound would not be appealing at all to me, I would 100% agree with this.
Cheers!
Nice.!! I understand they wanted to try new things and change it up but for me it did not improve their music. Still honor them for contributing to thrash and all metal. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥🔥
Yeah, I feel it's pointless to stop liking a band just because they went commercial or so, If an album is good then I'll keep listening to it. :) Cheers!
I absolutely agree with the top 5 . Those where the same ranking I had for them. I have no opinion on the other ones
Cheers!
I love the pre-Chaos A.D. albums
Same here. Cheers!
Aqui estamos de volta para mais um rank, dessa vez, Sepultura!
1-Beneath the Remains and Arise (this two albums are masterpieces, and they are two among the best trash albums with total certainly)
2-Roots (what a genius album! The idea of getting a comp with metal and indigenous songs is just lit man 😉👌)
3-Kairos (and TOTALLY UNDERRATED album from the 2010's, and definitely the best from the Derrick Green era)
4-A-lex (another TOTALLY UNDERRATED album and another one of the best from Derrick Green era)
5-Against (a totally AWESOME album with a very good Energy and really cool musics 😎👍)
6-Chaos AD (an awesome "groove trash" album from the 90's that i love ALOT man)
7- Machine Messiah (another awesome album from the 2010's and another reason why I like Derrick Green)
8-Quadra (another more awesome album to save the diabolic year of 2020)
9- Schizophrenia, Morbid Visions and Bestial Devastation (a trio of classics that started Sepultura really well, but idk, I'm not a big fan of it, but still, they still are good even to today 🙂👍)
10-Dante (even tough i don't like it Soo much, it is better than...)
11-Roorback (a album Soo unknown and soo irrelevant that i never heard it 🤷)
12-the mediator between hands and hands must be the heart (despite the really long name, this album not aged a bit well.
BUT, and that's a big BUT, the death cover from Zombie Ritual is AWESOME, but yep, that's it)
12-Sepulnation (well, Sepultura actually doesn't have bad albums to be honest, but sepulnation is really weak.
The sound is not attractive a bit to me, and the musics are not a bit creative, Soo yep, this is definitely a meh album 😑👎)
Roots was a nu metal album. *barf* hehe
@@RuthlessMetalYT well is difficult to say, despite the influence, some musics still have the groove influence.
But you are a actually correct, but still, this album is genius.
I know, fans from this channel and Ruthless itself will disagree with me a ton, but I still like alot this album, most because it was my first album I own.
Just for short explanation, my mom had this album and other ones because she is a fan of metal, to be precise, a fan of Iron Maiden, Judas, Sepultura and even Sarcófago.
One day, at my anniversary of 15 years in 2017, he passed to me Roots, and I heard it all the day on my vinil player.
I love it, and after this, i discovered Iron and Judas, and after on, i became a fan of metal, later discovering and becoming fan of Slayer, Metallica, Anthrax, Megadeth, Testament, Death, Suicidal Tendencias, Evile, and soo and sooooo on.
At the end, Roots is my most important album I've ever heard, because it was were i started this love with metal.
Arise is one of my favourite albums of all time. A tight 10/10 record. Only because of the music production, it ranks higher on my list than Beneath the remains . The whole album is a pure eargasm.
Cheers!
Incredibly based ranking (as always). Not afraid to single out horrible albums for what they are, despite their popularity (which will probably lose you subscribers), while also praising the truly great stuff. Ruthless Metal is an oasis of sanity in the metal community, never fails to deliver. Cheers, from São Paulo, Brazil!
yeah, I'm not a good business man but what the heck. :D Thanks boss, I appreciate the kind words. Cheers! 🤘
This channel is 🤘 awesome. If I agree or disagree your perspective is always interesting. My list is different but your opinion is metal sound perspective. 🤘
Yes, death to false metal! ;) Cheers! 🤘
Pretty likeable list bro
thanks boss
Perfect!!
cheers
@@RuthlessMetalYT Do you know dorsal atlantica, from Brazil?
Yes. cool band. Cheers!
I don't see the Cavalera brothers ever coming back and I'm ok with that. I don't them to come back because they might damage their legacy and Sepultura's last 2 albums are awesome. Max is doing his own thing with Soulfly and other projects he's doing with other metal gods.
Yeah, that feels very unlikely. Cheers!
This is about the best list of Sepultura as I've ever seen. Great overview and the albums you say sucked DID SUCK and the ones that were great were great.
Thanks, yeah. I thought more people would disagree with this one since I took a dump on a huge chunk of their disco. :) Cheers!
@@RuthlessMetalYT Haha yea I liked how you described those you took a dump on, but true thrash fans I can't imagine being overly happy with crap like Roots or Nation. I completely hated pretty much everything after Chaos AD and I don't really like that album all that much, though I don't mind doing different things and their stretching out with some new sounds is a cool idea, but eventually they just took it way too far. Sad thing is their albums 2-4 are pretty damn sensational. I guess they figured they'll never top that just go play nu metal slop and try to cash in on that terrible trend.
Good ranking. Real.
Thanks boss
I've never really gotten into them or even cared for them to be honest. But in later years I did get into a few of the soulfly albums. But I don't care for them that much eather. But I still liked the rankings video.🤘
thanks boss, early sepultura is much better than soulfly in my opinion. :) Cheers!
I've been saying everything you said about Roots for years. Nice to hear someone else with the same thoughts on such a bad album.
Yeah, total Nu metal bullshit. Cheers!
I think Roots is when they found "their sound". Its what separated them from every other metal band.
Sepultura era from Morbid Visions to Arise is 🔥💀🤘 !!!
Cheers! 🤘
I wasn't aware of how many albums they have actually. Just like you I saw the videos for chaos ad in middle school and ended up buying Arise because I couldn't find chaos AD. Now I own the repress of Beneath the remains on orange vinyl a double lp with extras. I agree with your list roots is definitely some kind of nu metal and lost me. I haven't heard anything new I like the classic Arise might be my favorite because of nostalgia
yeah, it's an insane amount of albums. :D Cheers! 🤘
I agree 100% with your list. I'm from Brazil, and here it's even hard to talk about Sepultura because if you say Sepultura was only good on the early years and with the Cavalera brother's, people you call you a "Cavalera stan" of something like that.
Cheers!
Love it. I wouldn't rank it that way myself but fair play to you. I'm going to listen to Morbid visions and Schizophrenia now. Yes I also think Sepultura lost their way with Roots. Morbid Visions right up to Chaos AD are class albums.
yeah, a ton of people seems to agree with that, I thought I would get more slack from Roots defenders but there hasn't been much. Maybe they know that I'm already not into that. hehe
I agree with your ranking of Sepultura. I was never a big fan to be honest. Their first 5 records are decent and after that,I couldn't care less about what they did or what Max did after he left. For your next ranking, I know they have a very short discography but it be cool to see what you think of a band like Exhorder,who I think are the best at the Thrash/Groove sound they helped create.
yea, I try to rank those who have put out at least 3-5 albums, the videos gets so short otherwise. Exhorder would be an easy rank for me. ;) we'll see what happens. Cheers! 🤘
Nice series, very helpful and informative. Could you by any chance do a Children of Bodom episode?
nah, I don't do that modern stuff. Cheers!
@@RuthlessMetalYT lol 26 years old modern?
Perfect!
cheers
How do you rank the debut split album?
I like it, kinda similar to Morbid Visions. Definitely groundbreaking and up there amongst their best.
I had my first & so far only major car crash while playing Beneath the Remains! Stone sober during the day... Luckily I wasn't injured but there was serious damage. I'll never forget Primitive Future was playing :D I remember thinking "well if i died, at least I died listening to good shit!'
damn, take care.
Will you also rank Mötley Crüe and Poison?
maybe motley crue, poison, that's a bit too far I think. :D we'll see there are no plans for neither right now.
Have you ever did your top best Maiden Albuns
I have ranked their albums, it's on my start page. check it out!
I was 15 when I got beneath the remains, was the best thing I'd ever heard at the time. Just wanted to say I think you've got it about right for me 👍
Cheers!
Soulfly has some good songs
I'm not so convinced about that. ;)
You should have ranked also the "Bestial Devastation" EP, I think it is even better than "Morbid Visions". "Quadra" is a pretty great album also, its first 3 songs are between the best music Sep even recorded.
I don't rank EP's they are just too short.
@@RuthlessMetalYT But do you agree that Bestial Devastation it is also between the great Sepultura stuff?
@@FredDiGiacomoRocha yeah I like the early stuff.
Very good list maybe you can do Soulfly next
nah, they suck. :)
I'm in total agreement RM! Well done fellow Earthdog!
Thanks and woof. Cheers!
Well here is how it goes with Sepultura for me. As I got into them when I was in high school in the very early 90's. Over the years my favorite albums from them have changed. But honestly I really only like the Cavalara brother albums. I couldn't get much into the post Max era. I may try and check out their newer albums and see what they are like. But since Chaos A.D. which I love, they haven't wowed me since then.
Arise: No doubt my absolute favorite album from Sepultura, as it gets listened to by me quite often. And Desperate Cry is my favorite track form the album and the band in general.
Beneath The Remains: Like you said a fantastic and flawless record and every track hits hard. Slaves Of Pain is my favorite track on the album followed by probably Stronger Than Hate or the title track with the awesome acoustic intro.
Schizophrenia: A fantastic album and every song on it is great. Kind of tough to choose a favorite. But I would agree From The Past Comes The Storms and Inquisition Symphony as awesome tracks. And even the remade Troops Of Doom track is more brutal and polished.
Morbid Visions: Well kind of tough to pick a favorite on this album as it is to me like they were playing in a cave. And that is what to me sets this album apart from the rest.
Chaos A.D.: No doubt when I first heard Territory on my local rock station 100.3 KZRX Z-Rock. I rushed out to pick up the album on cassette at my local K-Mart and was bummed the cassette was messed up on a certain track. So I returned it and paid a little bit more and got it on CD. I love every track on this album and it still has the Arise vibe to it. Tough to pick a favorite as I enjoy listening to the album from beginning to end.
And that is it for me as after Chaos A.D. the band never much interested me much since. As I said I will try and check out their more current albums and see what I get from them.
check out quadra and machine messiah they are alright. Cheers! 🤘
@@RuthlessMetalYT Will do man. Thanks!
Schizophrenia, Arise, BTR, Morbid Visions and Chaos Ad are amazing records.
You should react to the Cavalera Conspiracy 4 records, its more like old Sepultura, especially the last record: Psychosis. Soulfly also has better albums, the return of death/thrash metal from the Dark Ages album to the last one, Totem, which is perhaps one of the best Soulfly albums, because it has a lot of old school of early Sepultura, with Floridian death metal guitars
Yeah I kinda stayed away from everything Sepultura and Cavalera in the 90s and beyond. They lost me, I've heard a track or two from Cavalera Conspiracy, better than Soulfly but I don't like it that much. Cheers!
I’m glad you didn’t dump on all of the Derrick Green albums. Quadra is legitimately a great late period album and Derrick really deserves props for that.
I get the hate for Roots as I know you especially hate groove and nu-metal, but at least the album made the people who discovered it check out the better albums. As someone who does get along with Groove, I’d say Roots is very far from the worst that the genre can get.
I mean they are better than the previous ones but I don't think modern day Sepultura is that interesting.
Yes! Great list. Roots is when most people i know gave up on sepultura
yeah, it's also the album where most people found Sepultura, So I guess they changed their fanbase. :D Cheers!
When I first heard them, in 85, I thought they were shit, when compared to just about anything else at the time. Beneath The Remains changed my mind a bit, but Arise really got me interested.
I actually liked the fact that they wanted to evolve their sound and incorporate tribal rhythms, so I'd put Chaos A.D. and Roots 2nd and 3rd.
I've never heard any post-Max albums, so I can't comment on them.
Must have been cool to see them so early. Cheers! 🤘
If you enjoyed Roots and Chaos AD, then the post Max era is for you my friend. I don't think it's fair to sell the Derrick Green era short. It's a bit of a 🎢 rollercoaster throughout, but so was the Max era.
My list is very close to yours, I’d switch spots to make Schizophrenia number 1 and I think their 2 latest albums are a little better than Chaos A.D. (I bought in new and hated it, mostly because I heard Arise a year earlier and didn’t like the changes they made). Have you heard Jairo Guedz’s newer band The Troops Of Doom? They only have 2 EPs out but they’ve basically resurrected the Morbid Visions era with a cleaner production.
Cheers!
I respect your list. Mine top 3 is: Arise/ Beneath/ Schizzo...
Hey, the Discord link don't work.
discord.gg/ymrNpnqt
Their first 4 are all I need. Beneath The Remains is their best in my opinion.
pretty much. Cheers!
Wow. That was, by far, the most negative ranking I've heard you give anyone. I've got not problem with that, cuz I'm sure that's your 100% honest take. It just knocked me back a sec cuz I wasn't expecting it. As always, I dig your ranking. You pull no punches.
Yeah, I only raelly like old Sepultura, I don't like the modern bullshit, which is the same for a lot of pants, I disliked modern Pantera even more. :D Cheers!
Cheers Brutha. Always love your vids.@@RuthlessMetalYT
thanks man!@@docvader82
i thought you'd never get along to sepultura. one of my fav bands. Eloy is the best drummer i've ever witnessed, i hope they keep hold of him for a long time
1. Chaos AD (Masterpiece, Top 5 Album of all time for me)
2. Arise
3. Quadra (Modern Masterpiece, Even though sepultura have been great since Kairos they completely blew me away when this dropped. Will possibly surpass arise after more listens. Probably the best drum performance i have ever heard plus the best vocal performance on any sepultura album. By this point i can say that derrick is solidly a better vocalist than max)
4. Beneath the Remains
5. Machine Messiah
6. Kairos (Their comeback album even though i really liked roorback and dante)
7. Schizo
8. The Mediator
9. Roorback
10. Morbid Visions (Yes, its a bad album but its an extremely fun listen)
11. Dante XXI
Getting into the albums i dislike
12. Roots (Very overrated)
13. Against (Roots but with derrick on vocals. Only lower because i prefer max's performance on there)
14. Bestial Devastation EP
15. A-Lex (This was probably the lowest point in their career. Igor had just left so people were calling them a cover band, then they come out with this stinker... yikes, i'm glad they managed to get back on track)
16. Nation (i like sepulnation and vox populi, but the rest is trash. Barely managed to finish this)
Cheers!
been a huge fan of early sepultura all my life since i was born because of my dad so since october 3rd 2000 still listening 22 years later
Cheers!
@@RuthlessMetalYT yep
How about a tankard rank em all? Great channel 🤟🏻
would make sense, got no plans for it right now but maybe later this year.
Beneath The Remains intro riff is the greatest clean metal riff of all time 🤟
Cheers!
it is probably inspired by the call of chtulu intro.Its cool tho
I think Roots is an interesting album with a lot of good ideas.
Its obviously not as good as their first few, but I do think it gets unfairly maligned by hardcore Thrash fans and also massively overrated by metal noobs.
I agree, I think there are some original tracks, a good mix of song types and good energy, not total garbage by any means. I don’t agree it’s purely nu-metal.
even if its nu metal who cares its a good album the tribal rhythms the vocals filled with so much hate the groovy bouncy riffs its one of the best sepultura albums in my opinion
Cheers!
I think Dictatorshit in roots it's a great song, I always think bands like Hatebreed inspired themself in this song... Only my opinion.
I bought roots and against when they were newish. Roots was ok at the time, was fun to get stoned and listen to when i was 14 with all the weird stuff. But now the only song i can even recall is roots lol. Against had like 1 song i liked. Totally gave up on em after that. But i see you rated a couple new ones decently so maybe i will check those out
Decent for being Sepultura, most new thrash bands put out more interesting material in my opinion. Cheers!
I was fortunate enough to see Sepultura live several times during their prime, in the early/mid90s. Each show was energetic and a great performance. I only consider the band to be Sepultura with Max, after that I don't care for them, but I am a huge fan of the Max era.
6 Morbid Visions - too raw to be listenable
5 Schizophrenia - once again the production is so bad it nullifies any good songs
4 Roots - while the entire album isn't the best, it does still have some amazing songs
3 Chaos A.D. - I love all the new elements the band added, this is such a great album
2 Arise - this could easily be #1, every song just flows together effortlessly
1 Beneath The Remains - the first album I got from Sepultura, it still has some leftover rawness from the early days that translates so well with decent production and matured songwriting
I never saw them, Soulfly was booked in my hometown but they cancelled due to missing a flight or something. must have been the late 90's. Cheers!
