Soul Factor - FFO Sepultura or old school thrash

I'd never heard the "Timeline" album before, I am listening to it now on You Tube and liking it a lot.  It is heavier on the death metal than their later release, "Resurgence Of Chaos."

I did enjoy "Resurgence Of Chaos" which was remastered and re-released by VOG Records in 2020 (originally released in 2012).  "Ruins of the Soul" is from that one.

Pure old-school thrash with death metal elements from Brazil, with hoarse vocals and riff-heavy, mostly mid-paced songs that occasionally will ramp up to some cool high speeds. There is a definite Sepultura influence, and one can also hear elements of early Mortification, Crimson Thorn, Antidemon, and Obituary. 

Another reason I liked this disc was because the songs are well sequenced and flow well into each other. 

I do wish the bass were heavier in the mix, it is not as pronounced as i would like. Lyrics are in English and are mostly from a Christian worldview, talking about spiritual issues, drug abuse, anti-occult, and social issues.

I've since heard their latest song from their to-be-recorded 3rd album,. but did not care for it as much as their sound had changed somewhat.

Cool! Thanks ToB for sharing this band. I like this a lot!

Ooh, me likey.

Constantine is right, vocals are very Obituary like on the first time while the second song is more Morty like. Me likee.

I love the single Sacred Gate, a little more thrashy.

I think they sound more like Bolt Thrower than Sepultura. 

But either way, I like it!

Where do you buy their CDs?

Vision Of God Records licensed and remnastered the "Resurgence of Chaos" CD.

"Timeline" is going for big bucks on Ebay ($60).  It is still out of print.
Maybe VOG will license that at some point, but right now they are working on album #3 with the band.

Resurgence of Chaos smokes! Some of my favorite thrash I’ve heard in a while.
