Cogumelo Records is releasing in the Remasters series, for the first time in the CD format, one of the most polemic albums of the label. It is an album of the band Holocausto, from Belo Horizonte, MG. It's the band's first full length LP, released after it featured the compilation Warfare Noise I, along with the bands Sarcófago, Mutilator and Chakal. Holocausto is known by its metal style, called War Metal, which lyrics are about wars, disorder and all kinds of military, religious and politic abuse.

In May 1987, when the album was first released, many people misunderstood the band's intentions, believing that it was praising the fascist ideology. In fact, the band intended exactly the contrary, since its lyrics criticized and accused the brutality and abuse which happened in the world's recent history, and which are still present in our days. That's why the album is so up to date: the world hasn't changed in terms of violence and absurd wars, and the exploitation of one man by the other.

The album artwork has been redesigned, and it also features the bonus track "Massacre", from the band's first demo tape, which had only been released on the LP "The Lost Tapes of Cogumelo". The album's new design includes rare live photographs, taken in 1987 and 1988, and the translation of all the lyrics into English, since the album is sung in Portuguese. This way it will become clear to everyone the band's true words, making justice to a work that has been misunderstood at its time.

After the release of "Campo de Extermínio", in 1988, the band recorded the album "Blocked Minds", sung in English and with a cross-over musical identity. In 1991 the band released its third album, "Negatives", with progressive-thrash tendencies. Its last album, "Tozago as Deismno", was released in 1993, and it mixed metal and industrial references with pure madness.

Holocausto has regrouped its original line up from the "Campo de Extermínio" album, and has just released its newest album, "De Volta ao Front" (Back to the front).
