Max Cavalera Is Suffering From Bell's Palsy - Official Statement Available!

Soulfly frontman Max Cavalera is recovering from a bout with Bell's Palsy, a temporary condition that is a form of facial paralysis resulting from a dysfunction of the cranial nerve VII (the facial nerve) that results in the inability to control facial muscles on the affected side.

Cavalera was diagnosed with a case of Bell's Palsy last week upon his return from Australia. He consulted a doctor and was put on a course of antibiotics and is improving greatly and is expected to make a full recovery imminently. He thanks fans for their concern and well wishes and wanted his supporters to know that he is okay, since the condition manifests in the face and he ultimately didn't want fans to worry.

Of his recent illness, Max said, “I woke up one morning after coming home from Australia and the whole room was spinning. I looked at Gloria and said, 'There's something wrong here.'  She said, 'Your face looks weird.'  I went to the mirror and couldn't move half of my face.  We thought I was having a stroke, so we rushed to the hospital.  I learned my condition was called Bell’s Palsy but  I'd never heard of that.  It's a f---ng weird disease.  My right eye won't blink, and half of my face feels like I've been punched by Mike Tyson!  It hurts like hell.  Anyway, I am leaving for Brazil. The show must go on and this Bell's Palsy ain't gonna stop a Metalhead from his duties.  I hope I'll be ok and thanks to all the fans concerned with me.  Stay Metal."

We wish Max a prompt healthy recovery!



Soulfly's NEW album entitled 'Enslaved' will be released on March 13, 2012 via longtime label Roadrunner Records, which has been Soulfly's home for the course of its career. The label has also been Cavalera's home for the duration of his career, which began in the '80s as a member of Sepultura, who essentially rewrote the rules of Heavy Music when they arrived on the scene; Max continues to do the same today.

The video was conceptualized by Max Cavalera and video director Thomas Mignone (Mudvayne, Slipknot, Avenged Sevenfold, Morbid Angel) and produced through his production company DOOM Incorporated. Mignone filmed the video in and around Los Angeles. Various scenes depicting humanity's perspectives of some of the world's significant historical events - such as the attack on the Russian Czar by nihilists, the mass production of Zyklon B poisons, the Gulag prisons, the assassination of the president, and a final showdown between Jesus and the Anti-christ - are seen and reflected in the song's lyrics. The cinematography is by Peter Leininger; the special efx makeup is by Maggie Hunter, the production design is by Hanna Dryland, and digital compositing & post-production is by editor/visual efx artist Christopher Neil.

Soulfly Recruits Director Thomas Mignone For "World Scum" Video!

Max Cavalera's Soulfly, announced today that they will be recruiting director Thomas Mignone for the production of their video for their NEW song entitled "World Scum". The track is part of Soulfly's eighth studio album 'Enslaved' (set to be released on March 13, 2012 via Roadrunner Records), which was recorded at Tallcat Studios in Phoenix, Arizona and was produced by Zeuss, the seasoned knob twiddler behind some of the most notable bands in Metal today, such as Shadows Fall, Hatebreed, The Red Chord and more. Cavalera also shared production duties. This is what director Thomas Mignone had to say about this:

"It's an honor to receive a call from someone you had pictures of on your wall as a kid asking you to be on a NEW album of theirs. I literally had a picture of Max [Cavalera, Soulfly mainman] and Gloria [Max's wife and manager] holding [Gloria's son] Richie in her arms that I ripped out of a copy of Metal Maniacs on my wall when I was 15 or 16. Now they're asking for my artistic hand in one of their creations; [it] just doesn't get much more surreal than that. Very honored and the song is very 'Death Metal-ish' and completely crushes. Happy to be a part of it!"

Over the weekend, it was announced that Cavalera will be hosting an online video chat on Sunday, January 15th. Soulfy is scheduled to release of a brand new album entitled "Enslaved", which will be their eighth overall. While many bands barely make it to a third album, the Max Cavalera-led collective is still going strong two decades deep. 2012 also marks the band's 15th anniversary of making a tribally-influenced Metallic racket and what better way to celebrate than with a NEW record? The album will be released via longtime label Roadrunner Records, which has been Soulfly's home for the course of its career. The label has also been Cavalera's home for the duration of his career, which began in the '80s as a member of Sepultura, who essentially rewrote the rules of Heavy Music when they arrived on the scene; Max continues to do the same today.

The song remains insane for Soulfly, as does the lineup. The powerhouse lineup features Max and guitar dynamo Marc Rizzo, with Static-X's Tony Campos taking up the bass. The lineup is rounded out by drummer David Kinkade, a new school, extreme skinsman whose brutality behind the kit brings a new flavor to the band.

The band tracked 14 songs, 11 of which will be on the record, with the other three being made available for the special edition.

Track titles for 'Enslaved' are as follows:

- Resistance
- World Scum
- Intervention
- Gladiator
- Legions
- American Steel
- Redemption of Man By God
- Treachery
- Plata O Plomo
- Revengeance
- Chains
- Slave
- Bastards
- Soulfly VIII

Please note this is not the final track sequencing. The album is due out in March 13, 2012. It follows 2010's "Omen".
