Brazilian-based metal legends Sepultura have been giving fans a reason to bang their heads since 1984. Mixing syncopated rhythms with American thrash metal licks, the quartet have gained a strong following over the years despite numerous lineup changes, most notably the departure of brothers/founding members Max and Igor Cavalera. Forging ahead as they’ve done for years, Sepultura are ready to hit the road in 2011 for their first major North American tour in quite some time. The band will be supported by Belphegor, Hate, Keep of Kalessin, Neuraxis, and Bonded By Blood on the upcoming trek. Washington metalheads Nevermore will be taking over for Belphegor once the tour hits Louisville, KY on May 23rd. Find all confirmed tour dates below.
In other Sepultura-related news, guitarist Andreas Kisser has confirmed that the band is working on a new record to coincide with their impending tour. Stay tuned for more album news and details as it’s announced.
