…and that omen said it will come out May 4 on Roadrunner. And that it will feature guest appearances from The Dillinger Escape Plan’s Greg Puciato, Prong’s Tommy Victor, and (on b-side covers) Igor Cavalera and Zyon Cavalera. And, oh yeah, that it will be called Omen.

I’ve never liked Soulfly as much as I love Sepultura, but I did really enjoy Dark Ages, and the one time I caught the band live, they slayed. So while I’d much rather have a new Cavalera Conspiracy record, color me curious to hear this.

I’m less curious to hear the cover of “Refuse/Resist,” featuring the aforementioned Zyon Cavalera. Why does anyone ever cover their own song? The results are almost always disasterous – just ask Chuck Mosley or Slash

    For the R/R cover, all it’ll end up being is a re-recording of the original with absolutely no changes whatsoever, just a more modern sound and production.

    Soulfly: the masters of simplistic album titles.

    Actually, I kid. I like Soulfly a lot, even though their last couple albums do seem to have a bit of a case of Black Label Society Syndrome, as they’re sounding more and more alike. Plus, Max is looking more and more like a hobo every year.

    HELL YEAH! Been waiting to see that date! Can’t wait to hear what Max and the boys have coming; after 6 years working together they’re on top of their game right now…
