Band Members and Musicians on: Sepultura Schizophrenia
    Sepultura's Band-members, Musicians and Performers
  • Max Cavalera
  • Max Cavalera – Singer, guitarist (Sepultura)

    The voice that turned "Refuse/Resist" into a riot chant, then built a whole second career out of refusing to slow down.

    Max Cavalera is the gravel-throated singer and rhythm guitarist who dragged Sepultura from Belo Horizonte basements to the global thrash front line. From 1984 to 1996 I watched him steer the band from raw chaos into the career-defining run of "Beneath the Remains" (1989), "Arise" (1991), "Chaos A.D." (1993) and "Roots" (1996), where his bark and down-tuned churn felt like a protest march with amplifiers. He side-stepped into Nailbomb in 1994-1995, then launched Soulfly in 1997 and has kept digging that riff quarry ever since. Since 2007 he has reunited with Igor in Cavalera Conspiracy, and he still pops up in projects like Killer Be Killed. Subtle? No. Effective? Annoyingly, yes.

  • Paulo Jr
  • Paulo Jr. – Bass guitarist (Sepultura)

    Sepultura's longest-serving low-end anchor since 1984, plus side missions with The Unabomber Files (2009-) and Cultura Tres (2019-).

    Paulo Jr. is the long-haul bassist of Sepultura, the quiet engine who has kept the low end moving since 1984. I first clocked him as the constant onstage while the band sprinted from Belo Horizonte chaos into world-class thrash; he is widely credited as first appearing on Sepultura records with "Chaos A.D." (1993), after the early years where Andreas Kisser handled many studio bass parts. From 1984 through the farewell-era years, he stayed the anchor beside whoever was holding the mic. Outside the mothership he formed The Unabomber Files (2009-) and, since 2019, has toured and recorded with Cultura Tres. Not flashy, just stubbornly there - like my shelves.

  • Andreas Kisser
  • Andreas Kisser – Lead guitarist, backing vocalist (Sepultura)

    Joined Sepultura in 1987 and basically re-tuned their whole future without making a fuss about it.

    Andreas Kisser is the lead guitarist who walked into Sepultura in 1987, plugged in, and quietly made the band smarter and sharper without asking anyone's permission. From 1987 to today he's been on every major era: the thrash leap of "Schizophrenia" (1987), the Scott Burns-cut brutality of "Beneath the Remains" (1989) and "Arise" (1991), and beyond. He even fronted Sepultura at Monsters of Rock (Donington) in 1996 when Max had to step away - a promotion you don't get from HR. In 1994 he piled onto Nailbomb's "Point Blank" for extra shrapnel, then spent 1995-1996 trading demos with Jason Newsted and Tom Hunting. Since 2012 he's also swung with De La Tierra, proving riffs speak fluent Spanish too.

  • Igor Cavalera
  • Igor Cavalera – Drummer (Sepultura)

    Co-founded Sepultura, then later spelled his name "Iggor" like that fixes anything - and somehow it worked.

    Igor Cavalera is the drummer who co-built Sepultura into a global weapon, and he never played like a polite employee. From 1984 to June 2006 I heard him turn thrash into a stampede, then sharpen it on 'Beneath the Remains' (1989) and 'Arise' (1991) before the tribal grind of 'Chaos A.D.' (1993) and 'Roots' (1996). He detoured into Nailbomb in 1994, and after the split he reunited with Max in Cavalera Conspiracy (2007-present). He later showed up with Strife (2012), the noise duo Pet Brick (2018-), and even drummed with Soulwax in 2017, because metal apparently wasn't busy enough. From 2006 he also went by 'Iggor' and moonlit as half of DJ duo Mixhell. The groove is still the same: relentless, stubborn, and loud.
