Soulfly, etc. frontman Mac Cavalera (vocals/guitars) and his son Igor Amadeus Cavalera (vocals/guitars/bass) have teamed up in a band dubbed Go Ahead And Die. Completed by drummer Zach Coleman (Black Curse, Khemmis), the outfit have just signed with Nuclear Blast Records and are preparing to release their debut album. They commented of that:
Max Cavalera:
“One of a kind father/son collaboration bringing the old school with a new attitude! Sick riffs and abrasive lyrics from Igor and brutal drumming from Zach Coleman (Black Curse, Khemmis) inspired me! Extreme times call for extreme music!”
Igor Amadeus Cavalera:
“We are beyond excited to sign with Nuclear Blast. They are definitely the right choice for this colossally heavy record. G.A.A.D. will deliver fast-paced, hate-fueled energy that hasn’t been heard in years.”
Zach Coleman:
“I could not be more excited to be a part of G.A.A.D. and to have the album come out on Nuclear Blast! I feel like we were able to capture (extreme) aggression with the record. It’s a mix of old school (think ’89 era metal/punk) style and newer sounds that reflect what’s going on around us. Protest and Survive!”
An official press release states that the band ‘produce a sound that mixes elements of death and thrash metal, with early Celtic Frost influences and a punk attitude.’
Nuclear Blast added:
“For such a heavy, brutal, and pissed-off record; Go Ahead And Die will leave any metal fan with a smile on their face. With riffs the size of boulders and a genuine fuck off attitude that speaks about today’s horrors, this album will without a doubt leave a mark in metal and we are happy to be part of the journey.”
