The legendary CAVALERA brothers are set to embark on a thrilling musical journey with the announcement of their highly anticipated Morbid Devastation Tour, accompanied by EXHUMED and INCITE. With nearly four decades of trailblazing in the metal world, Max and Iggor Cavalera have decided to revisit their cataclysmic debut releases, Morbid Visions, and Bestial Devastation, taking fans back to where it all began.
Revisiting the Roots
The Morbid Visions and Bestial Devastation albums, which marked the beginning of the CAVALERA brothers’ remarkable careers, have been reimagined with great enthusiasm at The Platinum Underground. Max Cavalera and Iggor Cavalera led the production, while John Aquilino handled the engineering and Arthur Rizk took charge of the mixing and mastering. This meticulous approach resulted in the albums resonating with a dynamic and contemporary sound, all while preserving their original rawness and timeless essence.
The artwork for both albums was meticulously crafted by the talented Eliran Kantor, reflecting the apocalyptic essence of the times we live in today. Max Cavalera expressed his excitement about the project, saying,
“As we get harder year after year, sometimes you’ve got to go back to where it all started! We re-recorded Bestial Devastation and Morbid Visions with the amazing sound of NOW, but with its raw and timeless spirit. The artwork reflects the times we’re living in right now… Apocalyptic as hell! We also have two new tracks with riffs from those days, remembered by heart.”
The Morbid Devastation Tour Unleashed
Kicking off in Albuquerque, NM on August 29th, the Morbid Devastation Tour promises to be a relentless assault of metal goodness. Joining the CAVALERA brothers on stage will be Igor Amadeus Cavalera (HEALING MAGIC, GO AHEAD AND DIE), handling bass duties, and Travis Stone (PIG DESTROYER, DESOLUS), bringing the fury of lead guitars to the mix.
A Raw, Chaotic Experience
The tour will be an authentic homage to the early days, with tracks delivered like punch after punch, reminiscent of the electrifying live shows from the ’80s. Max’s powerful vocals will indisputably lead the charge through Morbid Visions, while Iggor’s thunderous drumming will relentlessly shake the ground with classics like “Troops Of Doom.” The quartet’s unwavering dedication to preserving the raw, discordant energy of the original releases is glaringly evident, and they have managed to capture the very essence of Morbid Visions and Bestial Devastation with a fresh and invigorating touch.
