Good stuff, terrible production.

Review Score: (6/10)
This album is unremarkable, except for a few select tracks. However, the energy of Sepultura and the conviction behind Max's barkings that drive the band in their future works is unmistakable. Interestingly, I find that the Bestial Devastation tracks are on average better than those on Morbid Visions: MV contains a lot of "filler" and much of it sounds the same - in fact, much of it sounds like "Schizophrenia", which is better. If you are a loyal fan, then get it anyway, you'll enjoy it. If you're just curious about Sepultura, then it depends: (1) Arise is clean and fast yet "melodious" (2) Roots is not a speed album, but it is a creative masterpiece (3) If you want raw speed and power, find a live album. Half of Blood-Rooted is tired junk that sounds like they are trying to get over with their record contract, but the other half is a relentless wall of noise.
