My Bloody Roots : From Sepultura to Soulfly and Beyond: The Autobiography Revised & Updated Edition
Max Cavalera / Sepultura - Book - by M.Cavalera & J.McIver
(2022)
My
Bloody Roots is the brutally honest story of life in two of the world s
best-known heavy metal bands, Sepultura and Soulfly, by one of the
global metal scene s most respected musicians. Max Cavalera s has a
unique and extraordinary story to tell, and My Bloody Roots is an
autobiography like no other. Much more than just another tale of rock n
roll debauchery, it s a story of heartbreak and loss and, ultimately,
triumph.
In
it, Cavalera offers an unflinching account of life growing up in
hardship in Brazil a country not previously known for heavy metal and
the multi-million-selling success, against all odds, of the band he
founded with his brother, Iggor: Sepultura. Then, for the first time, he
reveals the full story behind his split with the band after which he
did not speak to his brother for years and the formation of his Soulfly,
one of the most critically and commercially successful metal bands of
recent decades. He also goes into unflinching detail on the devastating
impact of the deaths of his father, stepson, and grandson; his struggles
with drugs and alcohol; his eventual reunion with Iggor in Cavalera
Conspiracy; and more.
This
revised and updated edition continues to trace Max s career to the
present day, covering the formation of his new band Go Ahead And Die as
well as the supergroup Killer Be Killed, making it truly essential
reading for all fans of metal.
