End Of March Metal Meltdown

Scott — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 23:16:20 +0000

The month of March was quite interesting. A lot of great things happened for me and a few great CD’s came out this month. I gave away some cool prizes and the first batch of the MetalMartyr.Com Compilations went out as well. Below is a list of links to some of this months posts that I think are worth a re-run.

The RIAA is still relentless about screwing artist out of money they get from settlements from illegal, Read about it here

I gave a list of My top 10 songs and cds this year. Some are new and some are old favorites. Check them out. Metal Martyr Top 10

I had a chance to check out a great show the beginning of the month and I got video Interviews with All That Remains Phil Labonte (Part 1 and Part 2), Light This City’s Laura Nichol and Ben Murray, and Black Tide.

Metallica Is Reissuing older releases on Vinyl.

Creator Destructor Records is a label operated by Light This City’s Drummer Ben Murray. Starting small but sure to get much bigger.

The Metal Potential Of 2008 is going to be great with all the great bands releasing new work and touring this year.

Sub-genre Hatred is never ending. Do you hate Metalcore?

I did a review of Marc Canter’s Book Reckless Road, the first years of Guns N Roses. I also called Slash Saul Rosenburg when his real name is Saul Hudson. Must have heard The Jerky Boys say Saul Rosenburg a few too many times and it stuck in my head.

I did a quick interview with Troy Medlin (T-Roy) of Southern Sludge Metal Band Sourvein here.

Metal has never been really radio friendly except on satellite radio

Do you think DragonForce’s song Through The Fire And Flames compares to the classic Eddie Van Halen Solo song Eruption? Let me know.

Black Tide released Light From Above on Interscope records and the Cavalera brother reunited for the Cavalera Conspiracy. Is there a possibility of a Sepultura reunion?

I did a quick review on As I Lay Dying’s First Recordings on The Long March

I talked about My favorite Concert and stepped away from Metal for a moment and talked about Straight Edge Punk legends Minor Threat.

Dimebag Hardware Clothing Line is up and running.

In Flames Release A Sense Of Purpose tomorrow. I got a copy early and I love it!

Metal fans are like rabid Pitbulls and sometimes we turn on our own. Read about it in I Am Hated part 1 and Part 2.

That’s about it for the month of March. If you want to see what else got posted this month, Click here.

As for me, I’m going to take the rest of the evening easy, throw some new Ernie Balls on my Ibanez and play around a bit. See you next month and thanks for coming!

Sepultura Reunion? Max Says "It’s Possible"

Scott — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 02:33:14 +0000

In a recent interview with by Vassil Varbanov of Bulgaria’s Tangra Mega Rock Max Cavalera was asked if there is any possibilities of a Sepultura reunion. Here is what Max said. Read the entire interview at the link at the bottom.

Tangra Mega Rock: In this connection, I’m sure a big part of the world is thinking of a SEPULTURA reunion with you and Igor. Would this be possible?

Max: It’s possible, but I don’t know neither when nor how. A couple of years ago, if somebody told me I’d be talking with Igor again, I wouldn’t have believed him, and you see we’re together again now, so yes, it’s definitely possible. I make jokes about this SEPULTURA reunion saying that I’m waiting for the end of the world, so we can be the opening band for Armageddon, ha-ha!

Forgotten Shredders | Andreas Kisser

Scott — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 02:30:13 +0000

Or perhaps a forgotten shredder. I was on my way home after helping my brother move some stuff and I was listening to Dead Embryonic Cells. A Sepultura classic from the Arise album. Singing along in my best Max, I almost forgot for awhile how much I used to love the way Andreas Kisser played. Even though most of the rhythms are fairly easy, his solos always ripped!

You don’t hear a whole lot about Andreas these days…sometimes some Sepultura news here and there but it just doesn’t feel like Sepultura anymore and as I said before, I stopped listening after Against. Listen to Arise, Listen to Chaos A.D.. Those were the days of Sepultura. Beneath The Remains and Schizophrenia are great records too but I like the sound of the guitars a lot better on Arise and A.D.

The Cavalera Conspiracy coming out next week I think is going to sound a bit closer to Sepultura than Soulfly and I think that’s why I am digging Sanctuary so much.

I said it once and I’m going to say it a thousand more time. Max, Igor, Paulo and Andreas. Bury the hatchet get back together if only for a reunion tour and maybe a new cd. Come on….you know you really want to.

Cavalera Conspiracy: Inflikted Out 3/25

Scott — Sun, 16 Mar 2008 13:24:25 +0000

The Cavalera Conspiracy’s Inflikted out March 25th on RoadRunner Records. You know I haven’t spent much time talking about the Cavalera Conspiracy and when I have I’ve either been telling Max to wash his hair or get a Sepultura reunion going. If you have not heard anything off of Inflikted you can download Sanctuary and/or watch the video below. So far I’m actually impressed. It’s not Soulfly and it’s not Sepultura, but it seems pretty cool and Marc Rizzo is an amazing guitar player.

Sepultura Reunion Hopes Looking Up?

Scott — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 19:06:19 +0000

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.

Sepultura Reunion A Possibility!?!

Scott — Fri, 24 Aug 2007 21:33:20 +0000

In a recent interview Max Cavelera mentioned that a Sepultura reunion is not impossible. Honestly, that would be one of the coolest things to happen in metal in a long time. Think about it. The members of Judas Priest swallowed their pride, buried the hatchet and made a pretty damn good record when they reunited with Rob Halford. Angel Of Retribution was and is a great ‘Priest recording. The band sounds modernized without breaking away from the classic priest roots and Halford’s voice could not be better. Priest put on a hell of a show! Yeah Rob Halford is gay, but who cares? I think he’s the coolest gay musician that I can think of, and you don;t know what other metal musicians that have not come out of the closet that you may idolize.

Now back to the Brazilian beasts! Sure if they have a reunion the shows are going to be unbelievable! A record would hopefully be in the works but I doubt if it will sound like Sepultura at their peak. When I say Sepultura at their peak I mean the “Arise” and “Chaos” era. Roots Bloody Roots was a cool but not one of my favorites. I sincerely hope that Max and Andreas can put the past aside and get back together if only for a reunion tour. That would make me a happy head-banging bastard! Maiden did it…why can’t Sepultura. Come one, Max. Pick up that phone, give them a call. If you can get back with your brother after all these years, then you can get back with old friends and make a million fans happy!

Below is the interview where Max mentions the possibilities of a reunion curtosy of Blabbermouth.net. Enjoy.

When asked if he would be willing to reconnect with the SEPULTURA members Andreas Kisser (guitar) and Paul Xisto Pinto Jr. (bass) if they tried to reach out to him after all these years of not talking to each other, Max said, “I’ve been thinking about this a lot and I think that maybe I should do that with them like Igor did with me — just call them [out of the blue one day] and surprise them. Maybe that’s the real way to fix the things between SEPULTURA and maybe there’ll be some kind of cool reunion… put all the bullshit aside. Let’s see [what happens]… because, you know, I regard Andreas and Paulo and Igor as more than just friends. Igor is my brother, but Andreas and Paulo are very close and they share very big, strong moments with me that many people have not shared.”
