AMG Review of Blood Rooted

Stephen Thomas Erlewine
All Music Guide

Blood Rooted is an album designed for Sepultura fanatics -- a full disc of rarities and unreleased music, featuring live tracks, covers, and demos. There are several throwaways here, but what's surprising is how many of these songs are worthwhile, particularly a cover of Celtic Frost's "Procreation of the Wicked" and the Mike Patton duet "Mine." Only dedicated fans need pick up Blood Rooted, but they'll find many treasures here.
