Lamounier sang briefly with Sepultura during the early part of the band's career, contributing the lyrics to the song "Antichrist" (a reference to his own moniker) featured on the band's first release Bestial Devastation. He then moved to his own band (Sarcófago) which, while less commercially successful than Sepultura, is widely hailed as a major influence on the most extreme spectrum of metal music, being revered by black, thrash and death metal fans. Ten years after leaving the band, he revealed personal information about his former bandmates. In response, Sepultura's former frontman, now with Soulfly, Max Cavalera wrote a song called "Bumbklaatt" about him.[citation needed]
Lamounier had not been active in the music industry since Sarcófago split in 2000, and he is currently a professor of economic science and applied statistics at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Despite this, in 2012 he formed the stoner metal band The Evil, with their debut album being released in 2017.
