With their farewell tour continuing to roll on, Brazilian metal legends Sepultura have plans to release a new four-song EP next year. Those tracks will feature drumming from their latest percussionist Greyson Nekrutman, who joined the band in 2024 after the abrupt departure of Eloy Casagrande. The latter decided to exit the outgoing group in favor of a spot in Slipknot.
Speaking in the below video interview conducted at this year’s ‘Mystic Festival, Sepultura guitarist Andreas Kisser spoke of that forthcoming EP, offering:
“We recorded four new songs with Greyson on drums. I don’t think nobody knows that, but there we go. We have four new songs, and we have the intention, next year, to release an EP, just to celebrate this momentum. It’s original songs that we worked [out]. It’s already recorded and everything, and we’re taking our time, really, to see where it’s gonna be the good time to do it.”
Speaking on how that material came together, Kisser relayed:
“…We did it in our time with no rush. There’s no names [for the songs]. We can decide that later. We’re still mixing the material — no rush. And it’s great. Because of the farewell [tour] idea, we can do that as well, to plan something like that, or not plan something like that, plan as less that we can to really to challenge ourselves artistically to work something like that.”
