cavalera conspiracy - european tour25.06.11

Photography is about taking risks. A recent risk I took involves the band Cavalera Conspiracy I have always wanted to photograph Iggor & Max Cavalera back together on one stage. After following Iggor & his wife Laima with Mixhell I was able to tour with Cavalera Conspiracy.

Cavalera Conspiracy was created following a decade long silence between Max and Iggor, the two brothers who formed the legendarily trailblazing heavy metal band Sepultura as teenagers together in 1984. Across six studio albums the Brazilian punishers perfected the art of darkness (look no further than thrash classics like Beneath the Remains and Arise) while exploring the underbelly of third world political issues and broadening the genre's horizons with an exploration of indigenous culture, culminating with the landmark Roots album in 1996..

Believe in your dreams, take the risks to live them.

Iggor Cavalera is best known for his part as the drummer in Brazilian super band Sepultura. Today though, Iggor is reinvented with a new project and fresh outlook and although an element of the spice that made Sepultura such an instant hit remains the words on everybodys lips are Mixhell. Iggor and wife Laima have moved the project from its creative home in the studio to the stage where it has become a DJ project with an extraordinary live element.
