Until The Philosophy Which Holds One Race
Superior And Another Inferior
Everywhere Is War

War In The East, War In The West
War Up North, War Down South
War

Until The Color Of A Man's Skin
Is No More Significant
Than The Colour Of His Eyes
I Got To Say There'll Be (no?) War

War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War

That Until The Basic Human Rights Are Equally
Guaranteed To All, Without Regard To Race
There'll Be A War

War In The East, War In The West
War Up North, War Down South
War
War
War
War
War, War, War, War

War In The East (It's A War)
War In The West (Now Everywhere Is War)
War Up North (It's A War)
War Down South (Now Everywhere Is War)
War In The East, War In The West
War Up North, War Down South

War, War (We Find It Necessary)
War, War
War, War (We Find It Necessary)
War, War
War (And We Know We Shall Win)
(And We Are Confident)

War In Africa or America
North America Or Brazil
Or Australia, It Doesn't Matter
(We're The Same)

Sepultura

Sepultura is a Brazilian heavy metal band from Belo Horizonte. Formed in 1984 by brothers Max and Igor Cavalera, the band was a major force in the death metal, thrash metal and groove metal genres during the late 1980s and early 1990s, with their later experiments drawing influence from alternative metal, world music, nu metal, hardcore punk and industrial metal.

The first Sepultura show was on December 4th, 1984. The band played two songs that never were re-recorded or released.

The band name comes from a Portuguese translation of Motörhead’s song “Dancing on Your Grave” which is “Dançando na sua Sepultura”. Sepultura means “grave” (sepulchre) in Portuguese (and in some other Latin-based languages). Originally, they wanted to call the band Tropa de Choque (Shock Troops), but found that the name had been used before.
