As previously reported, SEPULTURA are calling all the members of the tribe, in order to help them out with the production of the official SEPS documentary. Here is a word from the band:
"We are starting Kickstarter at $100,000,00 just to cover some of the production trips, crew, equipment, rights, image releases, taxes, among others, but our ULTIMATE goal is to raise about $1,000,000.00 to cover the remainder of the production. Anticipated outlays include travel expenses for interviews with former band members and music biz luminaries, as well as all the post production costs, including killer graphics and global distribution to the broadest possible extent."
The band has just posted a teaser featuring Philip Anselmo (PANTERA, DOWN) and Scott Ian (ANTHRAX):

In other SEPULTURA news, it has been confirmed that SEPULTURA have hired Ross Robinson to produce their 13th studio album, the follow up to 2011's 'Kairos'. This will be the first time the band works with Robinson since 1996, which is when the bands legendary album 'Roots' was produced by Robinson.
SEPULTURA currently has 13 NEW songs in various stages of completion.
"We are in the process of writing and we have already stared working on some of the lyrics. I am also working on guitar solos and other ideas," Andreas Kisser explained. Stay tuned for more SEPULTURA news!
As announced yesterday HERE, SEPULTURA are calling all the members of the tribe, in order to help
them out with the production of the "official" SEPS documentary via Kickstarter.
Right after we heard about this, our first question was whither or not the co-founders of the band (Max and Iggor Cavalera) would be included on this documentary. Max's wife Gloria Bujnowski, who managed SEPULTURA all the way until Max left the band in 1996, posted the following message regarding the above mentioned documentary. She also made it very clear that Max does not use Facebook and that all accounts that claim to be Max are fake.
"Just
to remind you, Max has no FB page, so please do not friend the numerous
people pretending to be him. Also, Max is NOT involved in the
"official" documentary being made, even though they are using his image
without Max's permission. Don't be fooled!! Funny they are using a
song Max wrote, for the add, instead of a song they wrote.... Max's book,
out this fall, will give the true story of his life! Have a killer
Tuesday and Thank you!!"
In our humble opinion if the current members of SEPULTURA want to add production value to their documentary, they should patch things up with the Cavalera's and include them in the documentary. Otherwise, they are cutting out the roots of the band out. Related links: Sepultura's Official Site

"The long awaited documentary about SEPULTURA’s incredible journey from Brazil to the world. Filmmaker Otavio Juliano has been following SEPULTURA for the better part of 2010-2013, a time of tension and triumph for the band, as they toured and recorded their album 'Kairos'. Nothing has been off-limits. This amazing story will go through SEPULTURA’s history, myths, conflicts, personnel changes and struggles with the Internet economy in the early 2000s as well interviews and rare footage. This documentary is certain to bring fans closer to the band they love. "About 50% of the film has been shot so far. We have witnessed this historic band experiencing wrenching transformations and unprecedented growth. We opened SEPULTURA's vault and dig into the best rare and unseen footage of the last 30 years. We will see them at their most vulnerable and human, and also as idols of the heavy metal genre. Those elements make the overall film an uncommonly powerful statement.
"Our goal is to make this full length documentary film to raise the most money, breaking all of the sites’ records in the documentary category.
"We want the film to premiere in 2014. For that, InterFace Filmes has already put down the first $100,000.00 to get production going as we have been on the road for the last 3 years with the band.
"We are starting Kickstarter at $100,000,00 just to cover some of the production trips, crew, equipment, rights, image releases, taxes, among others, but our ULTIMATE goal is to raise about $1,000,000.00 to cover the remainder of the production. Anticipated outlays include travel expenses for interviews with former band members and music biz luminaries, as well as all the post production costs, including killer graphics and global distribution to the broadest possible extent.
"If we raise more than $1 MILLION we might even be able to make part of the movie in 3D. 30 years of SEPULTURA in 3D? WHY NOT?
"So, let’s get this going right now! We only have 30 days!"

ALICE IN CHIANS have released a documentary called "AIC 23". The doc was produced by Alan Poole, a Film Studies Professor at a community college. "AIC 23" is a tongue-in-cheek film about Alan Poole’s attempt to provide some insight on the life of the band today, but with little luck reaching them, he then opts to interview other “musicians” who may or may not have been influenced by the band.
The doc also features cameos by METALLICA's Lars Ulrich and Rob Trujillo, HEART's Ann and Nancy Wilson, PEARL JAM's Mike McCready, SOUNDGARDEN's Kim Thayil and LOADED's Duff McKagan.
If you want to laugh, watch this now!

In May of 2011, Sound City Studios (located in Van Nuys, California) was shut down as a commercial studio. Sound City Studios has quiet a history, having had many legends of music record classic records inside the studios on Cabrito Road off the 405 freeway. Some artist that recorded at Sound City Studios are:
- Fletwood Mac
- Neil Young
- Tom Petty
- Eric Clapton
- Nine Inch Nails
- Slipknot
- Nirvana
So what is the connection between Sound City Studios and Dave Grohl? Well, not only did Nirvana record their groundbreaking album 'Nevermind' there, but Grohl is now the proud owner of the 1970s Neve Console that captured plenty of magic! Here is a message that Grohl had for the Skeeter family, who owned Sound City Studios for many years:
"Thank you so much for the opportunity to own the board. I wouldn’t even have the computer I’m sending you this e-mail on if it wasn’t for this board."
In order to pay tribute to Sound City Studios and all the artists that recorded there, Grohl has announced that he will be producing a documentary about the magic behind the studio. "When Sound City closed last year, it was a very sad day. That place was like a church. The list of people that recorded there reads like a virtual Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame... We recorded 'Nevermind' there back in 1991."
He continued, "That funky old place had the best drum room in world. The drum sound at the beginning of 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' — that's Sound City.
"I decided to make a film about that feeling you get when you put five guys in a room, hit 'record' and the hair on the back of your neck stands up. Expect some epic jam sessions."
One of the artists that will be joining Grohl on this awesome project is Corey Slipknot from Slipknot and Stone Sour. Here is what Taylor had to say about being part of this awesome project:
"[Dave is] doing a documentary about the legendary board from Sound City that everybody and their mom recorded on — everybody from 'Nevermind' to, actually, [SLIPKNOT's] 'Iowa'... And he's slowly but surely gotten all these people together to make music on that board again. And he called me. He was like, 'Would you like to do a tune?' I was like, 'Are you serious? I'm on a plane right now.' And it's really cool, because it's me, Dave and Rick Nielsen [CHEAP TRICK] on one tune. And I'm like, 'Ahh…. Excuse me?!' It's just a huge check mark on my bucket list, let's put it that way. And I'm really ecstatic. It's a really good tune."
Other musicians that will be part of the documentary include RATT's Stephen Pearcy and Warren DeMartini, as well as REO SPEEDWAGON frontman Kevin Cronin.
