MONDAY, APRIL 30
Soulfly and Incite at the Ottobar
Max Cavalera is back on the road again with a new Soulfly record, bringing his tribal Brazilian death metal to the Ottobar this April. “Enslaved” is the band’s eighth studio release and features new recruits Tony Campos from Prong, Ministry, and Static-X on bass and Borknagar drummer David Kinkade. Cavalera was a founding member of Brazil’s Sepultura and wrote the groundbreaking albums “Arise,” “Chaos A.D.,” and “Roots,” before a bitter split with the band in 1997. He went on to form Soulfly that same year and continued to explore new territories musically. In recent times, he has collaborated with his brother and former Sepultura bandmate Iggor with the Cavalera Conspiracy, and has been a driving force in his son Richie’s metal band, Incite, who have just hit the studio to work on their second album with producer Logan Mader from Machine Head. The new Soulfly record, “Enslaved,” celebrates the band’s 15th anniversary and deals with themes of slavery, with songs like “Chains,” “Legions,” and “World Scum .” Respected metal and hardcore producer Chris “Zeuss” Harris took the helm on this newest collection of bone-crunching madness and it features appearances by Dez Fafara of Coal Chamber and DevilDriver and Cattle Decapitation vocalist Travis Ryan, as well as help from his sons Zion, Igor, and Ritchie. The Cavalera family run across North America winds to an end in Baltimore and joining the guys on this night of mayhem is Lody King.
