Sepultura Reunion Hopes Looking Up?
If you’re a Sepultura fan you’d be lying if you said that you don’t want to see a reunion anytime soon. The “Classic” line-up of Max, Igor, Andreas, and Paulo was the best to date and we all know it. While Derek Green stepped in on vocals and did a rather good job considering who’s shoes he had to fill, it was never quite the same Sepultura, as Iron Maiden was not the same without Bruce.
When Soulfly Debuted I really liked it. These days I can’t stand it. I don’t know why either. I bought Against only because I was hopeful for the new Sepultura and I didn’t hate it but it’s not a memorable album like Arise or Chaos A.D…In fact now that I think about it I can’t remember one song off of that record. Looks like I gave up back then. To date I have yet to buy another Sepultura or Soulfly cd since the two I mentioned a second ago.
In a recent interview Max stated that the time he has spent with Igor has been great and it just feels right. He also said that he handled the split with Sepultura the wrong way and he realizes that now that he is older. What I can say is this. Max, you’ve taken the first step by getting back and making music with your brother. It’s time to take the next step and contact Andreas and Paulo. We don’t necessarily want a new record right away, just a kick ass reunion tour…and then a new record. C’mon, Max. Swallow your pride, wash your hair and give the fans what they Really want.

A return of Chaos AD Sepultura would be something to celebrate, that’s for sure. A real formative album for me, that one.

Would love a reunion. Saw these guys opening for Pantera in 91, and they killed. Derrick Green just doesn’t cut it. i cringe when I hear him ruining songs from Chaos AD or Beneath the Remains. Bring on the original jungle boys of metal. Also, just out of curiosity, Paul Raven…real name, or chosen in tribute of that guy who used to play bass for Prong???

You know, I never heard Derek Green sing any of the old stuff…and it’s probably a good thing then.
I honestly couldn’t imagine him singing the older tunes.

A reunion tour would be totally kickass, although chances are I wouldn’t be able to go see it even if it ever happened.

I was 16 when they broke up in 96. It was really sad for me, they were my fav band. Really. I picked up the drums because of Igor. My first cd was Chaos A.D. and I bought the whole collection soon after. It is amazing to listen to Igor in bestial devastation, at 14, playing like that! And when they broke up, I just couldn’t listen to soulfly or against… i never bought them. “without the cavalera brothers, there is no sepultura.” NO FUCKING SHIT MAX! You guys rocked! Those riffs… man, sepultura without those riffs… After max, the shit just wasn’t there. I would go a long way to see a reunion tour… a LONG LONG WAY!!!
