About

Roorback is the ninth studio album by Brazilian heavy metal band Sepultura, released in 2003, through SPV Records. The songs "Mind War" and "Bullet the Blue Sky" were released as singles and music videos. The digipak version (released everywhere except the United States) contains the Revolusongs EP and the video for "Bullet the Blue Sky". The album title refers to the "Roorback forgery". Sales were down from their previous albums featuring Derrick Green on vocals. However, Roorback received positive reviews and placed on Billboard's Independent Music Chart at #17, with first-week sales of 4,000. SoundScan reported on March 20, 2007 that Roorback had sold over 75,000 units in the United States. Allmusic's Alex Henderson gave the album 4 stars out of 5 and said that "unrest and political corruption are recurring themes on Roorback", and "the songs that Sepultura wrote paint a consistently bleak and troubling picture of the world". Adrien Begrand from PopMatters called Roorback "their strongest effort in years" and "their most consistent and energized album since Roots".
