Some consider it
As Brazilian Metal Gods Sepultura announced they were going to embark on an 18 month long Worldwide farewell tour to celebrate their fortieth anniversary, it only seems right that we should be listening to something from the Derrick Green fronted line up.

As if you haven’t already heard, the Cavalera brothers Max and Iggor have revisited their rich history and re-recorded both 1985’s “Bestial Devastation” and it’s follow up in 1986’s “Morbid Visions”.
