The Cavalera brothers Max & Iggor have announced who will be joining them onstage for their upcoming tour together. The aforementioned pair will be celebrating the earlier works of their former band Sepultura on that trek, performing material from 1989’s “Beneath The Remains” and its 1991 follow-up “Arise“.
Newly announced for their backing band on that trek are Soulfly bassist Mike Leon and guitarist Daniel Gonzalez of Possessed/Gruesome fame. All four of the aforementioned musicians commented on upcoming run, read on for what they had to say.
Max Cavalera:
“Beneath The Remains/Arise tour is coming! Introducing on bass guitar, thrashing and blasting bass beast Mike Leon (Soulfly) and on lead guitar, state of the art, death/thrash expert, Daniel Gonzalez (Possessed/Gruesome). We’re gonna take these songs to the Metal world in the most brutal way ever! Under a pale gray sky, we shall Arise.”
Iggor Cavalera:
“We can only count with the illest players to step on stage with me and Max to play Beneath/Arise. So getting Dan Gonzalez from Possessed/Gruesome and Mike Leon from Soulfly was an amazing choice!… Can’t wait to hit the road!”
Mike Leon:
“I am super excited to be a part of the revival of these classic albums with the brothers that created them, it is a great honor! These shows are gonna CRUSH, and I’m sure that we are gonna deliver these songs better than they have ever been played before to everyone who joins us! See you on the road!”
Daniel Gonzalez:
“It would be an understatement to say that I am incredibly stoked and honored to be able to play with Max and Iggor, and the fact that we’ll be playing material from Beneath The Remains and Arise is beyond surreal to me since I grew up worshiping those albums. Max and Iggor helped change the standards of extreme Metal and those albums are still living proof of that. It’s insane to me as a fan and as a musician to be able to play these songs live, and I can’t wait to do them justice!!!”
