"Dead Embryonic Cells" is Sepultura's second single, as well as the second of three to be released from the album Arise. Max Cavalera told Metal Hammer: "The lyrics are about how the current, but also the future generations are born in a dead world. A world ruined by their own ancestors that lived generations before them." (Source Dead Embryonic Cells Songfacts).
A music video for the song was produced and can be found on the VHS release Third World Chaos, which itself was released on DVD as part of Chaos DVD. The video features footage of the band performing in the wilderness accompanied by imagery from the album,
At this stage in their career the band had recorded little material to be used as B-sides, which is why the Arise singles are so similar. It is interesting to note that this single and the next, Under Siege (Regnum Irae) have the exact same artwork (a detail of the Arise album cover artwork by Michael Whelan) and B-sides.
