Max Cavalera is back to talk about Ritual! Max digs into how producer Josh Wilber forced him to dial back his extreme urge to go heavier, giving the new Soulfly album an old-school tribal groove. He also shares great stories about Mark Rizzo’s underrated solos, how proud he is of his sons in metal, and his “unfriendly” Nailbomb tour.
