SPECIAL ROADRUNNER REMASTERED RE-EDITION WITH 3 BONUS SONGS!! True masterpieces are exceptionally rare in the Thrash/Death genre, but this happens to be one of them. Beneath the Remains is no doubt Sepultura's best album, and one of the top thrash metal albums of all time. This is Sepultura the way they are supposed to be... Before the tribal gimmick, before the ridiculous Korn influence, before Max leaving to form a rap-nu-metal band... This was their high water mark. Their previous album, Schizophrenia, is just a taste of what lies in store with this one. Along with a much better sound quality, Beneath the Remains is a lot more focused and confident in its own sound. The riffs are far better than ever, and also more numerous. The songs are also much more balanced, perfectly mixing the right amount of melody with pure brutality. This is one mean album to say the least. Songs such as "Inner Self", "Stronger than Hate", "Mass Hypnosis", and "Slaves of Pain" will really get you into a thrashin' frenzy. That's not to say that any of the other songs here won't do the same thing, since there are really no weak tracks on this album. The big question is "Arise, or Beneath the Remains?" Coming from a Thrash point of view, Beneath the Remains is superior in every way. It's faster, it's heavier, it's better!!
