Music style and lyrics
Sepultura's contributions were recorded with overdriven amplifiers and produced by the band itself. They were recorded without a big drum , since drummer Igor Cavalera did not own a drum pedal and had never used one; he had learned to play the drums in 1983 and 1984 with only a snare drum , a floor tom and a cymbal . Max Cavalera's vocals consist of “manic death metal growls and evil screams”. Sepultura's lyrics are in English and deal with apocalyptic scenarios, Satanism , death and destruction. Accordingly, the material can be classified as Death Metal , formerly Black Metal or Black Metal -influenced Thrash Metal .
Overdose's contributions remind "[s] in parts [...] of a mixture of old SLAYER , HALLOWS EVE and the first IRON MAIDEN discs". Her lyrics are in Portuguese. Her song Anjos do Apocalipse alludes to the seven trumpets of the Revelation of John and thus also to an apocalyptic scenario.
meaning
The split LP is considered an important release in the history of Brazilian metal and helped Cogumelo Records to become the pioneer and first successful record company on the scene there. Sepultura's contribution is also considered one of the earliest death metal releases.
