It’s well known that Sepultura is coming to an end – hell, they’re on their farewell tour. Originally starting at the end of 2024, the “Celebrating Life Through Death” tour began in Chicago, but the band are hoping to do a “very big show in São Paulo, Brazil, or in Belo Horizonte.”
But, the big takeaway from guitarist Andreas Kisser‘s interview with Germany’s Metal Hammer is that “at the end of 2026, we’d like to do this last show.”
Sepultura have been around for 40 years – they’ve released 15 records – and have inspired bands such as Alien Weaponry, Bullet For My Valentine, Gojira, Korn and Slipknot, so it’s natural that a band with such a vast legacy is ready to preserve it in all of its integrity.
With plenty of material to craft a setlist from, the band announced they plan on recording a “massive compilation of our best, most energetic moments on stage” of 40 songs in 40 different cities back in 2023, ahead of the commencement of their farewell tour.
And – Sepultura don’t sound like a band that will be doing multiple farewell tours, rather Kisser said that “it would be boring to stop Sepultura and do something else that is Sepultura-like.” So, if you want to see the band now – you’re going to have to go abroad. The band wrapped up the North American leg of the tour back in October. Spring break trip, anyone?
