Sepultura's career been full of incredible achievements. The band that helped put Brazilian metal on the map – and then paved the way for the sounds of global metal when they recorded with the Xavante tribe on 1996’s Roots – they remained a crucial force even following the departure of founders Max and Iggor Cavalera, with the likes of 2006’s conceptual Dante XXI and latest album Quadra (2020) proving they could still produce top-tier material.
But last year, they announced plans to call it a day. Drummer Eloy Casagrande left in February (later resurfacing in Slipknot), while the band recruited Greyson Nekrutman, formerly of Suicidal Tendencies, and embarked on a worldwide farewell tour the following month. We took your questions to vocalist Derrick Green and guitarist Andreas Kisser, as they reflect on the end of a 40-year journey.
