(antiMusic) When news got out that Max and Igor Cavalera have mended the fence and began working together, many assumed that a Sepultura reunion was in the offing. Not so says Max. It will be an entirely new band complete with a new name and some punk thrown into the mix. The name is... Inflikted. Maybe they have been hanging out with Korn or Linkin Park?Max spoke with Metal Hammer about the new band and Max offered this description of their sound: "very punk, very hardcore, but also metal too. You'll hear stuff and you'll know it's coming from songs like 'Arise' and 'Beneath The Remains.' I've even done some death metal stuff 'Morbid Visions'-style which I haven't done for ages. Everyone was into it and it was such fun to record that sh*t. And we did fun stuff like a Possessed cover, 'The Exorcist,' but we did it in a more punk style."
Metal Hammer then asked, How worried are you that people will look at you reuniting with Igor and jump the gun by assuming it's some kind of Sepultura reunion?: "I tried to do this as naturally as possible. If you play together and that's the way the music comes out then you can't really change anything, even if you wanted to," Max responded. "There's a natural f**king energy coming out of both of us playing together. It's something I have no control over, because we have both worked on different things for many years and learned different stuff." - You can read the entire interview here
