Cavalera features brothers in life and heavy metal, Max and Iggor Cavalera, who were in the legendary Brazilian metal band Sepultura. Now, the two are gearing up to deliver nightly doses of their brutal sounds on the Return to Chaos tour, which launches in September. We'll get an Arizona show on October 11 at Tempe's Marquee Theatre.
An exercise in nightly rock 'n' roll devastation, the band will be playing Sepultura's fifth studio album, "CHAOS A.D.," in its entirety. In a statement about the tour, the group explains why they're doing this now. "Though the years have passed, CHAOS A.D. is as timeless and relevant as the day it was released. While wars are waged around the globe, violence is witnessed in the streets, hate and disparity are rampant in our everyday lives, albums like "CHAOS A.D." are what bind us together, being a prospect of light in an otherwise bleak and corrupt world."
The '90s release earned them Gold Record status with ferocious tracks like "Slave New World" and "Refuse/Resist." The band's set will be part of a bigger night. Strap in; Fear Factory will be opening most dates and throughout the tour, Cavalera will be playing alongside extreme metal bands like Slayer, Lamb of God, Sanguisugabogg and Power Trip.
Tickets are available now.
