Official. Includes printed inner! Excellent shape Psychic Possessor – Nós Somos A América do SulReleased in 1989, Nós Somos A América do Sul ("We Are South America") is the second and final album by Brazilian crossover thrash band Psychic Possessor. It marked a significant departure from their earlier sound, transitioning from the grindcore-inspired ferocity of their debut Toxin Diffusion into a more groove-laden, hardcore punk and crossover thrash aesthetic. The album is deeply rooted in the socio-political context of South America, with lyrics addressing themes of inequality, exploitation, and resistance. The album is notable for its raw, unfiltered energy, combining relentless guitar riffs, punchy basslines, and driving drumwork with gritty, shouted vocals. Tracks like the titular "Nós Somos A América do Sul" and "Falsos Profetas" highlight the band's focus on themes of social and political unrest. The sound incorporates elements of classic thrash, hardcore punk, and even samba-inspired rhythms, creating a uniquely Brazilian interpretation of the crossover genre. Despite its under-the-radar release, the album has since gained cult status, praised for its defiance of mainstream trends and its passionate embrace of regional identity. It remains a key work in Brazil’s underground metal and punk scenes, showcasing the band’s evolution and their determination to use music as a vehicle for social commentary Here are 50 similar artists who embody the intense crossover thrash and punk-infused metal sound that defines Psychic possessor: D.R.I.
