CAVALERA has become synonymous with extreme metal music, a name that to this day still holds the highest regard, a family legacy built upon decades of musical aggression. In 2023, founding SEPULTURA members Max and Igor “Iggor” Cavalera achieved what some would say was an impossible feat; they revisited the band’s earliest releases, “Morbid Visions” and “Bestial Devastation”, and re-recorded them and put them out, along with a re-recorded version of guitarist Andreas Kisser‘s first album with SEPULTURA, “Schizophrenia”. A risk that few would dare to even attempt, yet they artfully and prolifically attained their trademark raw sound by means that could only be described as magic or time travel.
Today, Max and Igor announce the CAVALERA “Third World Trilogy” U.S. tour. The 30-trek will kick off on February 19 at Queen B in Cottonwood, Arizona and will make stops in Seattle, Brooklyn and Orlando before concluding at the Van Buren in Phoenix on March 30. Joining the tour are Oakland death metallers NECROT and California thrash/hardcore band DEAD HEAT.
Max states: “We are really excited to bring the ‘Third World Trilogy’, featuring ‘Schizophrenia’, to the U.S.! If you want to hear fast riffs, pummeling drums, thunderous bass, and schizophrenic leads, jump in our pit!!”
Igor comments: “I’m super excited about this upcoming us tour, is one of those rare chances to see our first releases on our most purest form performed live. I hope to see you all in the pit!!! Don’t sleep on these dates. You have been warned.”
CAVALERA pre-sale tickets will go on sale on Tuesday, December 17 at 10 a.m. local time (Code: RESTINPAIN). General admission tickets go on sale on Friday, December 20 at 10 a.m. local time.
