Biohazard - Mata Leao LP

LIMITED RECORD STORE DAY BLACK FRIDAY 2024 RELEASE

"Mata leao" means "lion killer" in Portuguese, an appropriate title for this beast of an album, Biohazard's first as a trio. In this case less is more; with a sound blending so many ingredients (hardcore, rap, metal), the increased focus brought on by the streamlined line-up just hardens the tip of the jackhammer. Produced by Dave Jerden of Jane's Addiction and Alice in Chains fame, this 1996 release sees its first U.S. issue on vinyl, complete with printed inner sleeve.
