Cavalera: A Legacy Reinvented
Cavalera is not merely a nostalgia act. While brothers Max and Iggor Cavalera are taking a trip down memory lane by revisiting their material from their days in Sepultura, the essence of their band transcends mere reminiscence. Their recent endeavors, including a meticulous re-recording of their classic tracks, reflect a group firmly rooted in the present, brimming with innovative ideas poised to follow up their legendary hits with fresh, powerful offerings. This evolution was evident even during their previous phase as Cavalera Conspiracy, but their new one-word identity carries a renewed sense of intensity that acknowledges their formidable legacy.
Recent Releases and Upcoming Tours
Following the release of their latest project, Schizophrenia—a re-recording of Sepultura’s second album featuring a brand-new track and expert mixing/mastering by Arthur Rizk—the brothers are set to embark on a substantial US tour to unleash their unique brand of violence on audiences nationwide. The tour will feature two other iconic Californian bands: crossover thrash favorites Dead Heat and death metal titans Necrot.
