"This is appalling and we condemn it. We’re gutted and we support the victim," the band wrote in their statement regarding the offense. Continue reading…

Apparently, Sepultura have a thing for alliteration, because they hit us with a lil bit of it this past Friday (March 20), during the kick-off show for their Australian tour. The decided Perth was the perfect place for, well, “The Place” (there’s that alliteration!) since the debuted the track live on stage that night at the Metro city venue. Seemed like fans loved it, as you can see from fan-filmed footage (alliteration, again) like the clip below.

“The Place” is taken off the band’s upcoming new release The Cloud Of Unknowing EP, which comes out April 24 via Nuclear Blast Records.

Sepultura’s Perth setlist was as follows, according to good ol’ Setlist.fm:

1. Beneath The Remains
2. Inner Self
3. Desperate Cry
4. The Place (live debut)
5. Kairos
6. Propaganda
7. Attitude
8. Means To An End
9. Choke
10. Phantom Self
11. Kaiowas
12. Guardians Of Earth
13. Escape To The Void
14. Dead Embryonic Cells
15. Agony Of Defeat
16. Orgasmatron (MOTÖRHEAD cover)
17. Troops Of Doom
18. Territory
19. Refuse/Resist
20. Arise
21. Drum Solo
22. Ratamahatta
23. Roots Bloody Roots

Sepultura’s vocalist Derrick Green previously said this about “The Place”:

“This song deals with immigrants who have come to a place seeking refuge and start a new life. Once assimilated into a false sense of security and relentless propaganda, they began to act out against what they hate about themselves. The transition begins to escape from the self-hatred and the lashing out against people who believed in the same ideas. I feel the lyrics truly follow the transitions of the song. Starting with disappointment and arriving at anger.”

As someone who often starts with disappointment and later arrives at anger, this definitely resonated.

NO GUEST. NO FILTER. JUST PURE SONIC DAMAGE.

Sometimes you don’t need interviews. You don’t need small talk. You don’t need anything polished or pretty.
Sometimes you just need riffs. Volume. And a full-on sonic beating.
That’s exactly what went down on this latest episode of Metal Devastation Radio.
After getting knocked flat on my ass all week by the lovely little plague known as the rhinovirus, I wasn’t about to line up a guest and risk crashing mid-show. So instead of canceling or dialing it back, I did what any sane metalhead would do, cranked it up and let the music do the talking.
No guest. No filter. Just straight-up heavy metal chaos.
This episode kicks off with the rising underground crushers who tore it up in the Battle of the Bands, bands that are hungry, dangerous, and ready to rip their way out of the scene. From there, it spirals into a relentless mix of legends, underground filth, and brand new tracks that hit like a brick to the teeth.
You’ve got icons like Ozzy Osbourne and Darkthrone holding down the old guard, while bands like Jungle Rot and Six Feet Under keep things nasty and grounded in pure death metal tradition.
Then there’s the new blood and underground war machine bringing the heat with zero compromise. No trends. No gimmicks. Just riffs, aggression, and attitude the way it’s supposed to be.
If you’ve been feeling burned out on overproduced, overhyped nonsense, this episode is your reset button.

Final Word

No interviews. No distractions. Just a reminder of why we all got into this in the first place.
Turn it up loud enough to piss off your neighbors.
If it doesn’t rattle the walls, you’re doing it wrong.

Super massive shout out and thanks to the 163,828 metal maniacs from around the world that tuned in to the live devastation Friday night! 

Chappell Roan, whose attitude towards paparazzi, photographers, and audacious fans has long been a point of contention, was in São Paolo this weekend for Lollapalooza Brazil.
