Album information

The album artwork features an Om (ॐ), a spiritual icon in Indian religions. The original title for the album was Downstroy, after the opening track of the album. Max Cavalera later stated that he regretted changing the album's title.[4]

Songs

Both of the first two tracks were the only singles released from the album, "Downstroy" and "Seek 'n' Strike."

The song "One" features guest vocals from Ill Nino’s Christian Machado and uses the title as first word of the two word clauses per line: 'One soul / One heart / One man / One truth / One tribe / One life / One God'.[5] "L.O.T.M" (acronym for "Last of the Mohicans") is a Native American-themed metal song named after the 1826 novel of the same name. "Brasil" is a Brazilian metal song featuring berimbau, as well as percussion performed by Cavalera.

"One Nation", a cover song originally recorded by Sacred Reich, starts and ends with a sample of the United States' pledge of allegiance. "09-11-01" is a one-minute silence used for listeners to tribute to the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorism acts on the World Trade Center.

"Tree of Pain" is a tribute to Cavalera's late stepson Dana.[5][6] "Zumbi" and "Soulfly III" are world music songs.

Reception

Spin (8/02, p. 110) rated the album a 6 out of 10, stating that "There's something undeniably thrilling about an Ozzfest demagogue who champions dignity as a human right and makes a maxim like 'Faith is a weapon' his rallying cry...the band remains a hard-charging, tribal-drumming monster fierce enough to kick the bulldozers out of the rainforest....3 could be the charm for Soulfly."
NME (6/22/02, p. 52) also rated the album a 6 out of 10 stating that "Another clench-jawed grind through seven kinds of hell...Soulfly must be the only band who can make the obligatory minute of Sept. 11th silence seem loud."
Alternative Press (8/02, p. 67) rated the album a 7 out of 10 stating that "Streamlined and digestable...A impenitent tone is set from the start...enough to get the troops of doom marching once again."
CMJ (6/17/02, p. 16) stated that "This one is a winner; don't miss out."
