Roots
by Sepultura
The 1452nd greatest album of all time
Roots, Sepultura's 1996 album produced by Ross Robinson, moves away from the band's earlier thrash and death metal approach toward a heavier, groove-oriented sound that integrates tribal Brazilian rhythms, raw downtuned guitars and prominent percussion. The record features indigenous chants and guest contributions alongside slower, rhythmic grooves and moments of atmospheric experimentation, marking a clear stylistic shift in the band's sonic palette.
