Soulfly Announce Spring 2022 U.S Tour Dates
Metal band Soulfly have announced a 2022 U.S. tour with support from 200 Stab Wounds.
Soulfly’s lineup will consist of Max Cavalera and his son Zyon, along with Mike Leon on bass and Fear Factory’s Dino Cazares on guitar.
After over a month on tour, Soulfly will perform live for the Tribe again beginning Feb. 7 in Las Vegas. The tour will run throughout the U.S. and finish up March 19 in Gallup, New Mexico. Tour support is TBA along with 200 Stab Wounds on certain dates.
Max Cavalera commented:
“I’m more than thrilled to kick off the New Year with a tour! We will be playing songs from our upcoming new release!”
This will be their first tour since the Pandemic, as the last time they tried to tour the tour was unable to go through because of covid-19. They were able to play at a festival in 2021 when they performed at Judas Priest’s Warlando Metal Fest.
In a June 2020 interview on Kazakhstan’s “Armatura” podcast, Cavalera confirmed that he had been “writing some riffs” for the twelfth Soulfly album. He said, “I’m very inspired right now for riffs and music. I listen to a lot of heavy stuff. So I’ve been composing new Soulfly music, hopefully for next year. So I think next year we’ll have a new Soulfly record.” In a May 2021 interview with Finland’s Kaaos TV, Cavalera further reiterated the album’s progress and confirmed that it will likely not be released before 2022:
“We’re just working on it. We’re still just developing it. It’s in the early stages of being recorded. We recorded some, and we have to record a little bit more. But we’re just really taking our time.”
Soulfly also dismissed band member Marc Rizzo earlier this year for personal reasons, although Rizzo claims that the band offered no support to band members or crew during the pandemic. His replacement on the 2021 North American tour would be Fear Factory guitarist Dino Cazares.
