Brown plays percussion and sings on tracks like “Ratamahatta” and helped catapult the album to the status of the greatest classic in the history of national metal. But how did the invitation to participate come about and how did the Bahian react? This is what the biography “Sepultura – Os Primórdios”, released by Estética Torta, tells.

“They then decided to invite Carlinhos Brown, who they had met during a jam at the MTV Brasil awards party. Brown was excited about the invitation and went to Los Angeles to meet the band. ‘The guy was so happy that he didn’t even want to eat, All I thought about was recording myself’, remembers Paulo. ‘He was running around the studio all the time, talking super fast and having a thousand crazy ideas. I’ve never seen anyone with so much energy’ Brown ended up playing on three tracks and helped write ‘Ratamahatta’, a lyric in Portuguese that pays homage to three icons of Brazilian popular culture: Zé do Caixão, Zumbi and Lampião”.
