Sepultura co-founders Max and Iggor Cavalera have announced a U.S. edition of their “Third World Trilogy” tour that has their band Cavalera playing material from the first three Sepultura records, 1985’s Bestial Devastation EP, 1986’s Morbid Visions and 1987’s Schizophrenia. They’ll bring two great bands along for the ride, Oakland death metallers Necrot and Oxnard crossover thrashers Dead Heat.
Max commented, “We are really excited to bring the ‘Third World Trilogy,’ featuring Schizophrenia, to the U.S.! If you want to hear fast riffs, pummeling drums, thunderous bass and schizophrenic leads — jump in our pit!!”
Iggor added: “I’m super excited about this upcoming us tour, is one of those rare chances to see our first releases on our most purest form performed live. I hope to see you all in the pit!!! Don’t sleep on these dates. You have been warned. X”
The tour begins on the West Coast in February and treks all across the U.S. An artist presale begins Tuesday, December 17th, at 10 a.m., with more presales after that and the general public on-sale starting Friday at 10 a.m. All dates are listed below.
