Legendary Sepultura just played in Poland, tearing through the iconic Spodek venue in Katowice with a performance that left the crowd stunned. Fans who have recovered from the intensity are eagerly anticipating the band’s upcoming and likely final Polish appearance at the Mystic Festival in Gdańsk. This farewell concert marks the end of a four-decade journey that began in the basements of Belo Horizonte, Brazil, with the raw energy of their debut album, “Morbid Visions“. From there, Sepultura rose to international fame with 1989’s “Beneath the Remains” and became true metal icons with the release of “Roots” in 1996 – a groundbreaking album that fused thrash with South American indigenous sounds.
In 1997, the band’s sound evolved with new frontman Derrick Green, but their energy and intensity never wavered. Albums like “Against” and “Dante XXI” showcased Sepultura’s willingness to experiment while staying true to their metal roots. Now, after 40 years of influence and innovation, the band is ready to say goodbye. Their Gdańsk concert will be a final salute to their Polish fans, offering a last chance to experience the fierce power of a band that has left an undeniable mark on metal music worldwide.
