Savages专辑介绍
SOULFLYs ninth album, "Savages", will be released on October 4 via the bands new label home, Nuclear Blast Entertainment. The CD was produced by Terry Date, who is known for his work with such acts as PANTERA, DEFTONES and SOUNDGARDEN, among many others. Guest vocal appearances on "Savages" include SOULFLY bass player Tony Campos, frontman Max Cavaleras son Igor Cavalera (LODY KONG), CLUTCHs Neil Fallon, NAPALM DEATHs Mitch Harris and Jamie Hanks of I DECLARE WAR.
"Savages" will be released as a limited-edition digpack CD, 2LP vinyl and digital download.
The cover artwork for "Savages" was created by renowned artist Paul Stottler, who is best known for his work on SACRED REICHs legendary "Surf Nicaragua" cover.
Date previously mixed SOULFLYs "3" (2002), "Prophecy" (2004) and "Dark Ages" (2005) albums, but had never produced any of the groups CDs.
The drum tracks on the new SOULFLY CD were laid down by Maxs 21-year-old son, Zyon Cavalera, who joined the band as its touring drummer for its recent rampage through North America.
Zyon previously played with SOULFLY during the bands tour of Brazil in February 2012.
It is Zyons unborn heartbeat that can be heard during the intro of SEPULTURAs classic song "Refuse/Resist", which appeared on the bands RIAA-gold-certified "Chaos A.D." album, released three years before Maxs departure from the group.
Commented Max Cavalera: "Recording Savages was an amazing experience for me. I was so excited to work with Terry Date, whom I consider to be one of the best producers of all time. He has done some great records and we have been in contact for awhile since he mixed three SOULFLY albums in the past. He came to see SOULFLY whenever we played in Seattle, and we finally made it work that he would be the producer for Savages.
"My teammates were awesome. Marc [Rizzo, guitar] did some crazy guitar noises and we did a Mars Part Two at the end of El Comegente; its very LED ZEPPELIN-influenced and Marc kicked some ass on it.
"I wrote El Comegente with Tony Campos. Its in Portuguese and Spanish and its about Vargas — a Venezuelan cannibal from the 80s. He is the Hannibal Lecter of the Andes. Crazy shit!
"I worked for the first time on a full album with my son, Zyon. Before recording the album I first worked closely at home with him in preproduction, and it was great to spend weeks on the songs with Zyon, shaping the sound of the record.
"Zyon did a great job and he hits really hard just like his uncle Igor.
"It was amazing recording with my son. A whole record! A dream come true for a father whose life is dedicated to metal. Savages is a celebration of all that."
Igor Cavalera (LODY KONG): "I was super pumped when I got the call to add vocals to Bloodshed. Its badass that Nuclear Blast chose it as the first single."
Jamie Hanks (I DECLARE WAR): "It was pretty incredible working with heavy metal legends like Max and all of SOULFLY."
Neil Fallon (CLUTCH): "I am stoked to have been asked by Max to participate on the Ayatollah Of Rock N Rolla track!
"Max brought CLUTCH out on some of our earliest and most formative tours and this brought back some very fond memories of singing with Max all those years ago."
Mitch Harris (NAPALM DEATH): "It was an honor for me to finally collaborate on a song with Max and Co. Its something weve been talking about for the last 9 years.
"Ive always felt like part of the Cavalera extended family, and for me it was a truly uplifting, comforting and memorable experience after say 26 years or so. We ran through all the takes together, trying to capture the carnal energy, the push and pull between force and action. Friction, charisma, and something true directing the sole intent of the message, that was my general angle on it.
"Art and expression are about capturing the moment, the essence of a connection between like-minded souls, expanding on concise ideas that start small and end up big."
Tony Campos (SOULFLY): "Getting to share vocals with Max on El Comegente was great. The song was coming along so quick, I pretty much wrote lyrics for that on the spot. I showed Max a couple of different things and used the stuff he thought was cool and made him laugh."
Drummer David Kinkade (BORKNAGAR, ARSIS, MALEVOLENT CREATION), who played on SOULFLYs eighth album, "Enslaved", left the band last October in order to focus on his personal life.
