Six months after its release, Sanatorium by 4BanneD is still resonating with metalheads across the globe. This isn’t just another album that fades into the background—it’s a visceral dive into the deepest, darkest aspects of the human psyche. Tackling heavy themes like depression, schizophrenia, violence, politics, and war, Sanatorium remains a hard-hitting exploration of life’s ugliest realities. Six months on, its powerful lyrics and intense sound still leave fans buzzing.
Produced at the iconic Casanegra studio in São Paulo, Brazil, the album was masterminded by Rafael Augusto Lopes—yep, the same guy behind Crypta's recent smash success. Andre Zaza Hernandes, a production genius known for his work with Angra, also had a hand in bringing this beast of an album to life. With such a talented crew, Sanatorium was destined to be more than just a collection of tracks—it's a statement.
For those who’ve somehow missed the memo, 4BanneD came onto the scene back in 2015. The lineup? Alex Maramaldo (vocals, guitar), Icaro Cavalcante (guitar, backing vocals), Hewerson Freitas (bass, backing vocals), and Bosco Larcerda (drums). They blend Death and Thrash Metal seamlessly, giving a big nod to the legends—Sepultura, Testament, Vader, Entombed, and Carcass. These guys are no amateurs—they know how to rip it up with both fury and finesse.
Sanatorium is packed with lyrics that don’t just go in one ear and out the other. They stick with you. Six months later, tracks like “Eternal Revenge” and “War Blood Death” still feel fresh, digging deep into meaningful topics that transcend the typical metal themes. And let’s not forget the album’s reception—it’s still making waves in the community, and fans aren’t letting it slip away from their playlists anytime soon.
