SOULFLY: Part 3 Of New Video Interview Posted Online

July 2, 2008

MTV's Headbanger's Blog has posted the third and final interview segment with SOULFLY members Max Cavalera (guitar, vocals) and Bobby Burns (bass). In the new set of clips, which can be viewed below, Max and Bobby talk about working at Florida's Porch Studio and upcoming tour plans.

"Conquer" is scheduled for release on July 29 via Roadrunner Records. In addition to the standard version "Conquer", a special edition of the LP will be released featuring three bonus tracks and a bonus DVD containing a full 65-minute live concert.

"Conquer"'s cover artwork inspired the title and the picture holds a special significance for Max. "Usually, album titles are inspired by something else, like a movie," he says. "The first sketch the artist sent me was amazing. It depicted this crazy guy with six arms holding six weapons. Each weapon represented one of our records. When I got the image, the word 'conquer' just came to me." "Conquer" is a personal statement for Max and of course, has a deeper meaning meant to be explored by the listener. "To me, it's not about conquering the world. My statement on the record is conquering fear. If you conquer your fear, you conquer life and death. You're truly free when you conquer your fear. So that's why this name means so much," he says.
