Sepultura - Beneath the Remains

Title: Beneath the Remains
Artist: Sepultura
Released: 1989                                         RATING: 4.5/5

The Good: Sepultura's third album rivals any Thrash metal record released in the 80's, despite it's '89 release date. Beneath the Remains is a masterclass in in brutal metal that mainsains tight musicianship and melody at the same time. The first six tracks carry the album, for sure, but is still strong overall. If you are dying to satisfy your Thrash fix, Beneath the Remains will serve that purpose and then some.

The Bad: The bass guitar is relatively non-existant. Also, the final three songs, while still good, are somewhat lacking compared to the otherworldly first six songs.
