Sepultura - New Album Details Revealed


Sepultura invited the media for a first listen of their new album "A-Lex" inspired on the book "A Clockwork Orange". The album is scheduled for release in November 2008.

Recorded in São Paulo (Brazil) at Trama Studios and mixed at Mega Studios, "A-Lex" features 18 songs in 60 minutes total playtime and it's a milestone in Sepultura's career.

It's the first album recorded with drummer Jean Dolabella and it sounds different from any other work by Sepultura. As the band defines it, it was written and composed in record time because it's basically a recording of the studio jams during the period of 3 months.

The album title '"A-Lex" is Russian for "no law".

"A-Lex" tracklist:

01. A-Lex I
02. Moloko Mesto
03. Filthy Rot
04. We've Lost You
05. What I do!
06. A-Lex II
07. The Treatment
08. Metamorphosis
09. Sadistic Values
10. Forceful Behavior
11. Conform
12. A-Lex III
13. The Experiment
14. Strike
15. Enough Said
16. Ludwig Van
17. A-Lex IV
18. Paradox

Wow.. I didn't knew that the concept was The Clockwork Orange... I would check this out since Dante XXI was very good.

60 minutes?, I think that it's too much, but if all the songs are good, it would be great!

Although the concept album sounds good, but I really cannot accept non-Cavalera Sepultura...
Maybe the lyrics and story-line be very nice, but the performance is not well in my opinion.

they are completely lost.. lost their best musicians and their spirit as well.
''...sounds different from any other work by Sepultura.'' which means that they are done with the Tribal Thrash, and will go on with the stupid church themes from Dante XXI... crap...
Sepultura just give up from being above the average.. they want to be commom now...

I'm really looking forward to it, and will never understand how people can judge an album just on the basis of the band's comments and a tracklist.

Because they're too gay to admit that Sepultura is trying to keep the shit alive. And that Dante XXI is indeed an album with strenght.

I'm sick of people that prays Max way to much...

I wish i could hope for the best too... but if this album turns out like the two previous.. this band is going straight to nowhere.

Maybe for you, but I see that many people think that Dante XXI is their best one without Max and it's even bettter than Caos AD or Roots.

I am one of those people that prefers Dante XXI to Chaos AD and Roots and see as their best without Max and definitely better than ANYTHING Soulfly ever did.

Not to me... even ''Nation'' and ''Against'' are better than Dante XXI (and probably this new album too), so its not about Max... its about Sepultura's identity and how i prefer their music. Their Tribal Thrash works were my favorites and now they are gone... and i just feel that is a great loss for them to become just a regular Thrashcore band.
Dante XXI is an ok album, practically a Roorback with better worked solos... and this new album... who knows... maybe they surprise me... but just looking to this tracklist give me a bad feeling.

Since when does a tracklistnig say anything at all about the music on the album? Never and it never will. And for once I find a concept about A Clockwork Orange refreshing to the stuff bands usually go on about.

Regular Thrashcore band?
WTF?... I haven't heard any kind of Thrashcore with a sound like Dante XXI... How can you describe it as a normal album?

The only difference between Dante and the other thrashcores (besides the theme of course), are tracks like ''Still Flame'', the four interludes or that middle part of ''Ostia''... the rest looks like Chimaira, Unearth and other normal bands that pops out everytime.
Thank god Andreas didnt quit the band, his solos are still a salvation.
