Sepultura's "Territory"
Today is just a one off post showcasing Sepultura's song "Territory". I remember seeing this video as a teenager as I was just starting to explore heavy metal. I thought this song was brutal then and 20 years later, this song is still one of my all time favourite heavy metal tunes.
This song was a single of their Chaos AD album (which in itself is a massive slab of sheer heaviness as virtually every song just crushes). Sepultura at this point were branching out from their earlier death metal / thrash roots into a hardcore metal sound with a Brazilian flavour.
"Territory" is a fine example of that. This song has a hardcore sensibility with a killer thrashy breakdown. Mix that with a solid tribal rhythm and socially relevant lyrics and that's a recipe for a great heavy metal tune. If you're not banging your head by the 2:30 minute mark, you clearly have no neck.
Enjoy!
