A masterpiece of earthy, subtly atmospheric, insidiously strange metal.
Perfectly-named too. Roots brings the roaring and riffing as hard as anything in 90's metal, but that Brazilian influence simmers underneath, the skittering rhythmic asides, the the Korn loose-bass rattle, the buzzing drones and chants - there's this vibrating backbone that keeps you uneasy, the first third of a Cronenberg movie, something branching and snaking between the drums and guitars. Sneaky good shit 4/5
