Scott's Metal Track of the Day - Roots Bloody Roots by Sepultura

Today's Metal Track is brought to you by Sepultura. This is off of the Brazilian band's 6th album Roots which was released in 1996. It is the best known song by the band and remains a concert staple. I got to see them perform in Atlantic City in 2012 at Metallica's Orion Festival.

The video was filmed in the catacombs underneath the city of Sao Paulo, where the Brazilian slaves were sold and tortured. It shows Brazilians practicing Capoeira (martial art/dance) and native tribes playing the drums in their tribe uniforms.
