Brazilian metal legends Sepultura has announced that their new studio album "A-Lex" will be released on January 26th via SPV Records. The album was previously expected to drop this month but no date was ever confirmed. The album will be another concept record and is based on the infamous novel "A Clockwork Orange" by Anthony Burgess. The title of the album takes its name from the main character in the story but also translates as "no law" in Russian.

New Sepultura is definitely very different from the old stuff and in some ways will never beat the older stuff, but if you're willing to look past "OH MY GOD! MAX CAVALERA ISN'T THERE USING THE SAME LYRICS OVER AND OVER! THIS SUCKS!" then they're still a fantastic band, Derrick Green's a great vocalist with a distinct sound and it's more interesting than the older stuff in a way. If you wanna check out any of the new albums, I'd recomend "Roorback" I love that album.

I don't mind; I think the album will be good, at least I hope so...although I do wish to hear some material before I give a definite opinion about it.

"a clockwork orange" was strange but good movie. How you write a concept album from that I don't know. The band has never been the same since Max left.

I only have one Sepultura CD with Green on vocals.. I think it's called "Against"... It's a decent CD, worth checking out.
