"Girl From Ipanema" and a new song called
"We've Lost You" from their upcoming album

SPV Records on the following dates:
Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Brazil: January 23
UK, Scandinavia, rest of Europe: January 26

The CD, which is based on the
Anthony Burgess novel
"A Clockwork Orange" (later turned into the classic film by
Stanley Kubrick), was recorded at in São Paulo, Brazil at
Trama Studios and was mixed at
Mega Studios. According to
SEPULTURA, the follow-up to 2006's
"Dante XXI" features 18 songs with a total playing time of 60 minutes and was completed in record time because it is basically a recording of the band's studio jams captured over a three-month period.
SEPULTURA's forthcoming CD will be the group's first to feature drummer
Jean Dolabella, who replaced founding member
Igor Cavalera in 2006.
Igor has since reunited with his brother and former

SEPULTURA guitarist
Andreas Kisser will release his long-awaited solo debut, entitled
"Hubris I & II", in 2009 via Holland's
Mascot Records. A two-disc set, the self-produced effort was recorded in part at
A Voz do Brasil studio in São Paulo, Brazil.
Kisser previously stated about the album, "I'm very pleased with the result and I'm excited to hear it all done. It was a long process, a learning process and a great experience. It's a musical journey trough the influences I had for last 15 years of my life and at the same time it's very different from everything I did so far."
"Hubris" comes from Greek word "hybris," which means "excessive pride, wanton violence."
