Sepultura – Above The Remains Official Bootleg: Live In Germany ‘89

Last year Roadrunner/Rhino Records reissued the first six albums by highly-influential Brazilian metal band, Sepultura - Morbid Visions (1986), Schizophrenia (1987), Beneath The Remains (1989), Arise (1991), Chaos A.D. (1993), and Roots (1996) – on colored vinyl in a box set.  Earlier this year, they reissued expanded newly-remastered 2CD or 2LP versions of Chaos A.D. and Roots, complete with bonus tracks, b-sides and live recordings.    

Now to complete the collection - as part of their annual ROCKTOBER collection of releases - Rhino has recently issued Above The Remains; an Official Bootleg recorded Live in Germany during their 1989 tour in support of Beneath The Remains.  On translucent red 140g vinyl, the previously-unreleased live recording features 8 tracks including, blistering takes on fan favorites such as “Inner Self”, “Lobotomy” and “Troops of Doom”.  Also, included is their metallic cover of Dead Kennedy’s punk classic, “Holiday In Cambodia”, as well as all of Max’s stage banter.  The recordings were captured directly to tape at the soundboard and provided by Monte Conner and Borivoj Krgin, then mastered and cut to vinyl.   

You can find the Above The Remains Official Bootleg: Live In Germany LP in your local retailer.  For more info please visit, https://www.rhino.com/rocktober
