Underground icon, extreme metal trailblazer, third-world warrior, and leader of a diverse and dedicated tribe, Max Cavalera not only survives but thrives, blasting out riff after killer riff. The same voice, body, and spirit which launched SOULFLY in 1997 summons impossibly heavy noise to this day, throwing down ten slabs of monstrous music on the band’s twelfth album, Totem, which was released this past summer.
Today, the tickets for the band’s “Totem” U.S. Tour 2023 are now on sale. The 57-date trek will kick off on January 25th in Tucson and make its way across the US making stops in Austin, Virginia Beach, Brooklyn, and Seattle before the final date in Tempe, AZ on April 1st. Joining the band on select dates are BODYBOX plus HALF HEARD VOICES (Jan 25 – Feb 16), SKINFLINT (Feb 17 – Mar 5), and DRIFT (Mar 6 – Apr 1).
SOULFLY‘s Max Cavalera comments, “After the amazing reception Totem got from fans, I’m very excited to bring this intense tour across America! Once again, we’re bringing new upcoming bands to our Tribe. Support the underground!”
