Soulfly

Max Cavalera’s Primitive (2000), Soulfly’s second album, is a raw, genre-splitting riot that hurls nu-metal, tribal percussion, and hardcore punk into a mosh pit of chaos. Featuring guest fire from Slayer’s Tom Araya ("Terrorist") and Chino Moreno ("Pain"), the record is a visceral onslaught—part headbanging catharsis, part global rebellion. Tracks like "Back to the Primitive" and "Jumpdafuckup" (with Corey Taylor’s guttural cameo) explode with Cavalera’s signature riffage and anarchic energy. Yet interludes of Brazilian berimbau and chants reveal deeper roots. More than a sequel to Soulfly, it’s a manifesto: unfiltered, unapologetic, and louder than war.
