In a short Facebook update, Brazilian metal legends Sepultura announced that they have begun work on their next studio album, which is as yet untitled. A statement from the band reads as follows:

"February has been really special. Besides the celebration of the 20th anniversary of Roots, we started writing another chapter in our history. We've just started the writing process of our upcoming album and you'll know every step of it. Stay tuned!"

This will be Sepultura's first full length album since 2013's, "The Mediator Between Head and Hands Must Be the Heart" and their third for Nuclear Blast Records. More information will be revealed as it becomes available.

What's Next?

Yeah "A-lex" is a great album. I'm glad I'm not the only who likes anything Sepultura released after they fired or let Max go.

I agree with you both. "Against" and "Nation" both had some really good songs, but since "Roorback," the band has been on a great run, especially "A-Lex" as Houston said. "Mediator..." I felt took the band to new areas of metal, with a black metal sound lurking in there. I can't wait for this!

You're absolutely right, Oz. I can't understand why people despise Derrick Green, but I do love some of the stuff Sepultura has done with him as much as I love the stuff they did with Max. Sure Derrick is no Max, but what the hell? Both singers are awesome.

I've had no interest in Sepultura for a while, perhaps I should give their past couple releases a listen
