CAVALERA CONSPIRACY: Video Greetings From MAX And IGOR Posted Online
January 18, 2008A short video message from SEPULTURA founding members Max Cavalera (guitar, vocals) and Igor Cavalera (drums) shot earlier this month by Germany's Metal-Hammer.de web site during the Cavaleras' European promotional trip for the CAVALERA CONSPIRACY project can be viewed below. Also available is a separate video message from Max which was filmed exclusively for the Metal-Online.com web site.
CAVALERA CONSPIRACY — the project featuring Max and Igor alongside vocalist Joe Duplantier (bass) of the French progressive death metallers GOJIRA and SOULFLY guitarist Marc Rizzo — will release its debut album, "Inflikted", in North America on March 25, 2008 via Roadrunner Records (one day earlier internationally). Rex Brown (PANTERA, DOWN) makes a cameo bass appearance on one track. Another song is a collaboration between Max, Joe and Richie Cavalera (INCITE) on vocals.
An audio sample of "Sanctuary", the first single from CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, is available for streaming at this location. A video for the song was recently filmed in Paris, France.
This long-anticipated reunion between the Cavalera brothers is something fans across the globe have been waiting for since SEPULTURA's last gig at Brixton Academy in December 1996. Hailing from Belo Horizonte in central Brazil, SEPULTURA gained a legendary reputation as the one of the most highly regarded and successful death/thrash metal bands of all time, with two gold albums under their belts both in the UK and the USA — "Chaos A.D." (1994) and "Roots" (1996).
"When Igor and I met at the 10th annual D-Low Memorial Show [in 2006] and got the instruments in our hands, it was like we had never been separated. The metal was flowing in our veins," Max previously said. "It was the same in the studio."
Recording took place this past July at Undercity Studios in Los Angeles, with rising production star Logan Mader (ex-MACHINE HEAD/SOULFLY guitarist). Among the 11 songs set to appear are "Inflikted", "Bloodbrawl", "Terrorize" (formerly "Holy Poison"),"The Doom of All Fires", "Ultra-Violent" and " Sanctuary". A b-side cover of the POSSESSED death/thrash classic "The Exorcist" was also recorded.
