Discuss “Big Al's Metal Shop”

On the second full day of spring, under blue skies and surrounded by singing birds, I have come to realize that I love my job. For, you see, today is the day that I get to interview one of my heroes, Max Cavalera of Sepultura. A decade ago, after Brazil had won its first World Cup of our generation, an album by the name of Roots came out. With this disc, any teenage Brasileiro could finally begin to understand his parents.

Sepultura had a stellar discography before ?96 ? [ITAL]Chaos A.D.[/ITAL] has songs like ?Territory? and ?Refuse/Resist?

that are metal anthems that live on today. But with [ITAL]Roots[/ITAL] they smacked it out of the park by delving into their cultural lineage and recording with the Xavantes Indians from the Amazon.
