Conquer sounds more like a continuation of The Cavalera Conspiracy and less of a Soulfly album, but that’s a great thing. Max keeps the lyrics simple and lets us never forget how much he loves the word “fuck”, as he did with the Cavalera Conspiracy. The riffs are crunchy yet interesting and the solos are as always great from the fingers of Marc Rizzo. Max pretty much expresses his dislike for war…in every song. The theme is pretty much the same all the way through but it still sounds good. Touching the void is a cool slow groove and chop song with more instrumental than vocals and the last track, Soufly VI is a great soft instrumental arrangement. What is even better about this album is that it has very minimum of the tribal effects and such that every other Soufly album has. If you have any doubts, head on over to Soulfly’s Myspace and stream some of the new stuff. Max got his groove back, bitches!
