Cavalera Bros to re-record Morbid Vision and Bestial Devastation

Actually have Schizophrenia on here now and it sounds grand except the drums are a bit loud.

I've never really loved the sound of the original recordings tbh. I think they all sound fairly crap up as far as Beneath The Remains. Not unlistenable crap but an update is no harm. Maybe a remix and master might have done the trick but it'd probably be called a cash grab then as well. Sounds a lot better than poor old Paradise Lost's new version of Icon anyway

I have some very hazy memory of an article in a magazine back when Roadrunner did a re release in 1990 that the original recordings were no longer available and the remaster was accomplished using a two track master reel or similar that Cogumelo hadn't recorded over

edit: I have not lost all my memory yet.
From this thread, the same as I read back then

Here's some information about the different mixes:
On 26 and 27 August 1990 Sepultura were in the CJ studio in Belo Horizonte to re-record 'Troops Of Doom' for the re-release of 'Schizophrenia'. Max: "We wanted Scott Burns to re-mix the whole album totally, and we wanted to record two extra songs as a bonus for the CD, 'Troops Of Doom' and 'Anti-Christ'. In the end we had to scrap the second song because we could only get two days of studio time booked.
We were very happy with Scott's re-mix, but you could hardly call it a re-mix. Our old record company was so smart they had erased the 16 track master tapes to use for something else. All Scott had to work with was a two track tape which was made to press up the album".

Burns definitely mentioned that in a Decibel interview a few years ago too.

Say what you will about Morbid Visions/Bestial Devastation but re-recording Schizophrenia is absolutely ridiculous. It's their best album, nothing wrong with the original. Total money grab, those recordings sound shite.

Spot on.

Wonder if Max will leave Cavalera after they get around to re-recording Roots
