During a recent interview with Full Metal Jackie, former Sepultura frontman Max Cavalera was asked about the band’s decision to head out on a farewell tour. He says even though “they still call it Sepultura everybody knows that it’s not the same and it’s never gonna be the same.”
Cavalera said the following:
“To me, I feel — and I’m not saying that just for myself — I think a lot of fans feel that me and Igor kind of carry the spirit of SEPULTURA with us on everything that we do. And I don’t know — they still call it SEPULTURA, but everybody knows that it’s not the same and it’s never gonna be the same. And I don’t have nothing to do with what they’re doing, with the disbanding of the band. Me and Igor, we have our own path, we are on our own thing, we are revisiting those old material on our own time. And the way we did them was the way we always did — it was from our heart. For us, it’s really special to preserve that. I think it’s kind of like that young heart, the teenage heart that lives inside of you. I kind of like keep that really sacred. And no matter what happens in in the business or the politics of music, I try not to let that affect my young mind and soul that I carry with me all the time. So I feel like that when talk about SEPULTURA. It was a special band of a special time and we celebrate that — I get a chance to celebrate that with Igor, regardless of what the other guys are doing.”
