Sepultura are one of the most successful acts ever to come out of Brazil with global album sales in excess of 30 million and are one of the most important and influential metal acts of their generation. Metal Vein: Alive At Rock In Rio was filmed at the legendary Rock In Rio festival in their native Brazil on the 19th September 2013. It is a spectacular performance which sees the band accompanied throughout by the French industrial percussion group Les Tambours Du Bronx. The sheer volume of sound and the powerful presentation of the songs sets this apart from any previous Sepultura concert release.

Metal Vein: Alive At Rock In Rio features the unique collaboration with percussionists Le Tambours De Bronx, all which gives a fresh take on classic Sepultura tracks, including "Roots Bloody Roots", "Refuse/Resist", "Sepulnation" & a cover of Prodigy's "Firestarter!"
