Drummer Igor Cavalera Quits Sepultura

Drummer Igor Cavalera has officially announced his departure from SEPULTURA.


In a statement released on June 12 to the Brazilian media, Igor
attributed the split to "artistic incompatibility" with his SEPULTURA
bandmates — guitarist Andreas Kisser, bassist Paulo Xisto Pinto Jr. and
vocalist Derrick Green.

"I believe my mission in SEPULTURA has come to an end," Igor said in
the statement. "I am very proud of everything we have done, but I feel
that the group’s current formation no longer lives up to my
expectations as a musician and a person. Since my last tour with
SEPULTURA, which took place in Europe in December 2004, I have sensed
that my ideas were not compatible with those of the rest of the band."

Definately sad… Sepultura was essential listening for all metalheads… G_Man, Fairull, Bacha, Syahar and me use to spend countless hours (and money) in the jamming studios practicing and perfecting our covers of their Chaos AD EP songs….

The line-up back then was…

G_Man - guitars
Fairull  - killer "nyamuk tiruk goreng" guitar
Bacha  - drums
Syahar - growls
Me      -  bass
