About
Mata Leao is the fourth studio album by American heavy metal band Biohazard, released on June 25, 1996 by Warner Bros. Records, their second and final album for the label. It was released It charted at No. 170 on the Billboard 200, charting over 100 places lower than its predecessor, State Of The World Address (which charted at No.48), and was a commercial failure, leading to Warner Bros. to drop the band from the label. Music videos for "Authority" and "A Lot to Learn" were released to promote the album. The album was produced by Dave Jerden, best known for producing albums by Alice in Chains and Jane's Addiction. It was recorded by the band as a three-piece following the departure of guitarist Bobby Hambel in 1995. During the touring cycle for the album, former Helmet guitarist Rob Echiverria stepped in his place. The words "mata leao" loosely translate into "lion killer" in Portuguese (also the name of a chokehold in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu). The album was released on Vinyl, Cassette and CD. Some versions of the CD came with an O-Card. As of 2008, the album is out of print.
