Having met at the legendary New York City Ritz in 1989, on Halloween, Max and Gloria Cavalera forged a path through Metal, which will live in history for ages to come. Early in their relationship, they steered the Brazilian band Sepultura to the top. Walking away together in 1996 gave them the opportunity to create legendary acts like Soulfly, Killer Be Killed, Cavalera Conspiracy, Go Ahead And Die, and the recent rejuvenation of Nailbomb.
This partnership created a family empire as the talents of their children became obvious to the Metal world with bands such as Incite, Lody Kong, and Healing Magic becoming worldwide acts.
Max and Gloria‘s reunion with his brother, Iggor Cavalera, created even more music as bands like Cavalera Conspiracy, the Cavalera band, Petbrick, and the eclectic Laima Leyton gifted the world with uncompromised art.
Gloria‘s idea for the Cavalera band to play the old Sepultura records live and to rerecord the dust off the Cavalera’s early music was a step into the unknown. Those ideas changed the direction of Metal and gave the newest generation of fans, the opportunity to hear the songs they had only heard the elders talk about.
