Now all these years later and <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> mastermind <strong>Max Cavalera<\/strong> wants to get back to the tribal\u2026 and maybe n\u00fc?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;[The next <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> record will be] very tribal, back to basics. I&#8217;m gonna let <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> be <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> again,&#8221; said <strong>Cavalera<\/strong> in an interview with <em>Metal-Roos<\/em>. &#8220;I kind of stopped <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> from being <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> for a couple of years, and I kind of regret that a little bit. But now that I have <strong>Cavalera<\/strong> and <strong>Go Ahead And Die<\/strong> and <strong>Killer Be Killed<\/strong>, I get to really let <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> be <strong>Soulfly<\/strong>. Let&#8217;s go back to what it was in the beginning. It&#8217;s that tribal groove power that people love. So I&#8217;m creating a record with that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cavalera<\/strong> previously expressed interest in going back to his n\u00fc-metal days in an interview with <em>Moshpit Passion<\/em>, saying: &#8220;I really liked the early <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> stuff because it was more tribal and more groove. And now because I have <strong>Cavalera<\/strong> and <strong>Go Ahead And Die<\/strong>, I can be as heavy as I want with <strong>Cavalera<\/strong> that it leaves me <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> to be something quite different. I can mold <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> a bit different now where <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> is really kind of like more of a groove-oriented tribal band. And I think that&#8217;s really, in a lot of people&#8217;s perception, that was the best of <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> was like that.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, it&#8217;s not that I&#8217;m jumping on the bandwagon of nu metal; it&#8217;s not really that. It&#8217;s just that I think that the early <strong>Soulfly<\/strong> had some kind of magic that, through the years we kind of lost that magic. And I think we&#8217;re trying to bring it back with this new record that is gonna come out next year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"INTERVIEW: Max Cavalera the Metal Icon talks about family the passion for Australia and more\" width=\"880\" height=\"495\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/D4mmYs7_LDQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"zox-post-body-wrap left zoxrel newsletter-grab\">\n<div class=\"zox-post-body left zoxrel zox100\"><strong>Want More Metal?
