And has been in the road since, with some formation changes after brothers Max Cavalera and Iggor Cavelera left the band in the 90s.
The band’s currently formation consists in Derrick Green (Vocals), Paulo Xisto Jr (Bass), Andreas Kisser (Guitar) and Eloy Casagrande (Drums).
In an interview with Metal Imperium, he said about Sepultura retirement:
“Not yet. I know this time will come, but there is still this motivation, this desire to be on the road.
“I know that we have been in the band for 36 years; it’s a long career. I know that time will come, but I hope it will take a few years yet. We still have health and energy to be on stage, which is what we love to do the most.
‘For me, it’s the best and most important part. Of course, a record marks a story, a period of our life, but the good thing, in my opinion, is to be on the road, to be traveling these countries, to present each album, to meet new people, different cultures. This is still very strong and present in our career.”
“I hope we will be on the road for a few more years. I don’t know how many, but you never know what might happen tomorrow. As long as we are healthy and strong, I believe we will continue on the road.”
The band released recently they new album “Quadra”:
I am a Brazilian journalist, a Classic Rock and Heavy Metal lover.
Music has always been part of my life, helped me through tough moments and was with me to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist I knew I wanted to write about my passions.
After college I did a postgraduate degree in digital communication. This has helped me to make the website better and bring the best of classic rock to the world!
