FEAR FACTORY‘s Dino Cazares play guitar for SOUL on the Max CavaleraThe group’s current US tour kicked off August 20 at Launchpad in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The 33 date trek will conclude in Tempe, Arizona on September 25.
Max and Dino discussed how they met and Dinothe connection between the musical style of SOUL in two new videos that were filmed during tour rehearsals in Phoenix, Arizona and just uploaded to the SOULFLY YouTube channel. Check them out below.
Max already said about playing with Cazares: “What I’m looking for the most [forward to on] this tour with Dino, other than everything we’ve been through, I think it’s a celebration of our passion for metal, and our roads come together, this time in the form of a tour. And I think that’s really cool because we have a lot of similar fans – a lot of FEAR FACTORY the fans are SOUL Fans; they like both groups anyway. So it’s almost like it’s going to be a bit of a dream come true for all these fans to see us both on a stage playing [and] heartbreaking. And for me, as Dino fan, before you even get here [to our rehearsal space], I was trying to imagine how songs will sound with this crunchy Dino ringing on some of the stuff that never really sounded so aggressive – just like tight machine riffs, make songs tighter. And he learned everything like the records, which is amazing. So we play stuff like ‘Fire’, ‘Bleed’ and ‘Boom’ the way it’s on record, which we’ve never done before. And besides that, [I’m] I also can’t wait to have him on the road, telling stories and joking, because we do. It’s professional – we like to be professional – but you also have to enjoy what you do; you have to have fun with it. And the whole crew tried to really welcome Dino in the SOUL camp. I think it’s really cool. He even told me the SOUL tribe, all the fans embraced him in our camp, in our tribe. And for me, it’s going to be a unique opportunity. Because he is in FEAR FACTORY, so, of course, he does not join SOUL. But I really think it’s a special thing that we do. And who knows what will come out of it? But it’s gonna be amazing. The shows are going to be incredible. And I am very, very eager to present everything that we have been working on [on] here. It’s gonna be just a very, very special SOUL to visit – [more] unlike any other tour we’ve ever been on. ”
When its addition to SOULtour lineup was first announced, Cazares said in a statement: “The first time I met Max in 1991, I knew we were going to be longtime friends. I was at the bar, he grabbed my arm and yelled “Papa Capado”. I was like ‘who the [email protected]#% are you? He said ‘I am Max‘and from there, we just hit it off. That same night, I played the FEAR FACTORY demo tape on his Walkman cassette tape in his hotel room while attending a musical convention in Los Angeles. He loved it so much that he didn’t want to give it back, so I had to fight him and get him out of his Walkman, haha. It was my only copy. Max Recount Monte Conner, the A&R director of Records de Roadrunner, that we had a new demo he needed to check out, so our manager at the time sent our demo to Mont after many labels refused us. The rest is history.
“Over the past 30 years, I have been invited to some of the Maxprojects and jumped on stage when and where I could. It is now a great honor to do this tour alongside Max as the second guitarist. It’s going to be amazing for all the fans to see us play a selection of SOUL songs and a few familiar extras.
“Much respect to Max and his family – thank you for always making me feel at home with the SOUL Tax Faisons cell!!!! One two three four”.
Although for a long time SOUL guitarist Marc Rizzothe group’s departure was not officially announced until August 7, it was widely assumed that he was out of the group two days earlier when it was revealed that Dino would play guitar for SOUL on the current tour.
