"Against" is Sepultura's eleventh official single, and the second of three to be taken from the album "Against", released in 1998. At 1 minute and 54 seconds, it is Sepultura's shortest single. No video was created for the song. It is a good example of the hadrcore punk direction Sepultura embraced after Max Cavalera's departure. The cover artwork simply shows the band's logo on a red and black background. It is the very same image used for the next single, "Tribus".

Releases

The single was released on CD only.
