Brazilian metal superstars, Sepultura, have release a new "behind the music" trailer in support of their upcoming Quadra album. The new clip focuses on drummer Eloy Casagrande and his contribution to the new album.

Frontman Derrick Green in this video about Eloy Casagrande: "I think the creativity of Eloy's drum style is not like any other's. So, this is something: He brings in his own personality and his style playing the drums. It is so unique, the way that he never know where it's gonna go - he's always challenging himself. We're so grateful and thankful to have someone so talented as Eloy who's always pushing himself to go further."

Sepultura  have signed to BMG for the release of Quadra in Latin America.

Formed in 1984, Sepultura have released fourteen studio albums including 1993’s groundbreaking Chaos AD. They have sold over three million units in the United States and almost 20 million worldwide, gaining multiple gold and platinum records around the globe, including France, Australia, Indonesia, United States, Cyprus, and their native Brazil.

Said the band, “We signed with BMG because we believe in their modern and fair business model. In addition, they value the past of Sepultura and believe in the future of the band.”

The signing of Sepultura in their home market is a significant achievement for BMG as it builds its recordings business in Brazil.

BMG Brazil General Manager Jasmina Zammit said, “Sepultura is one of the few Brazilian bands to have enjoyed global success over decades. They have achieved iconic status in the heavy metal scene and beyond. I feel very honored they have chosen BMG as their partner.”

Quadra, out on February 7, will be released elsewhere via Nuclear Blast.  Quadra is Sepultura's fifteenth studio album which presents a thrilling and brutally honest concept around the Portuguese word "Quadra" (playground). Everyone grows up in a different Quadra, shaped by rules and definitions. We are all determined by these concepts, our relationships, our careers. Our whole lives.

- 2 CD + Blu-ray Earbook,
 - Vinyl
* Black vinyl LP
