SEPULTURA, ANGRA, KORZUS: Quality Video Footage Of São Paulo Jam Available

May 21, 2009

Brazil's SG Strings has uploaded video footage of members of SEPULTURA and ANGRA performing a cover version of KORZUS' "Guerreiros do Metal" (followed by a rendition of BLACK SABBATH's "Paranoid") — with a special guest appearance by vocalist Marcelo Pompeu from KORZUS — on May 29, 2009 at Via Funchal in São Paulo, Brazil. Watch the clip below.

KORZUS played a special 25th-anniversary concert on December 5, 2008 at Blackmore Rock Bar in São Paulo, Brazil.

Formed in 1983, KORZUS is one of the oldest and most important bands of the Brazilian thrash metal scene, along with groups like DORSAL ATLÂNTICA, SARCÓFAGO, SEPULTURA, GENOCIDIO and VULCANO. The band made its first vinyl appearance as part of the seminal metal compilation called "SP Metal" on the Baratos Afins label back in 1985. KORZUS went through numerous lineup changes over the years, with the group's three-member nucleus — Marcelo Pompeu (on vocals),Silvio Golfetti (on guitars) and Dick (on bass guitar) — remaining intact for much of this period.

KORZUS' classic lineup (1988 - 1992) consisted of Marcelo Pompeu (vocals),Silvio Golfetti (guitar),Marcelo Nicastro (guitar),Dick (bass) and Beto Silesci (drums, replacing Zema who committed suicide in 1988).

Golfetti temporarily played guitar for SEPULTURA on a European tour in December 1991 when Andreas Kisser was unable to perform due to an arm injury.
