Cavalera Conspiracy (formerly Inflikted ) is a Brazilian Death and Thrash Metal - band .

history

The band consists of the brothers Max and Igor Cavalera , who have already played together in the band they founded, Sepultura . When there was a dispute in 1996 about the contract extension of the former band manager and wife of Max - Gloria Cavalera - Max left the band. With their new band Cavalera Conspiracy, the Cavalera brothers found their music together again. Other band members are Joe Duplantier - also a member of the band Gojira - and Marc Rizzo from Soulfly .

For legal reasons the band name was changed from Inflikted to Cavalera Conspiracy . Now the first album, which was released on March 24th 2008 on Roadrunner Records , is called Inflikted . The album, which according to Max Cavalera should also have hardcore punk influences, was recorded in July 2007. Rex Brown, bassist for Pantera and Down, made a guest appearance .

The band's first concert took place on August 31, 2007 in Tempe , Arizona, USA. In the summer of 2008 there was an extensive tour with visits to Europe and North America. Since Joe Duplantier has enough to do with Gojira, Johny Chow played all of his live performances for him.

Chow also recorded the second album Blunt Force Trauma , which was released in March 2011.

In 2014 the album Pandemonium was released , on which Nate Newton from Converge bass plays. On the tour, however, Johny Chow was back on bass.
