Under a Pale Grey Sky
Under a Pale Grey Sky is a live Sepultura album, released by Roadrunner Records on 24 September 2002. It was recorded at Brixton Academy in London on 16 December 1996, with Strife and Floodgate also on the bill that night. The title nods to the chorus of "Arise", the title track of the band's fourth album.
What gives the record its weight is the timing. Max Cavalera left Sepultura shortly after this show, following an argument with his bandmates outside the tour bus, so it captures the line-up's final chapter. The set draws heavily on that year's Roots, alongside the best-loved songs from their earlier albums. Roadrunner put it out after dropping the band from its roster.
