When we caught up with Max Cavalera, the legendary frontman of Soulfly and Cavalera Conspiracy (and former Sepultura member), he had plenty to say about politics, passports, and the passing of rock icons. Honest, unfiltered, and full of stories, Max shared his take on life, music, and staying creative after decades on the road.
Do you find the current political climate amusing or scary? Or do you have an opinion on it?
It’s always sort of crazy around election time. Do you see much of a difference between this particular election and the last one—or any others you’ve experienced in your life?
This one seems crazier. More “no rules,” you know? They’re all attacking each other. It’s like, Trump just says whatever he wants—it’s crazy. The stuff he says is mind-blowing to me. I’m like, what the hell? But it doesn’t seem to affect him negatively, though. The more scandal he creates, the more points he gets. For some reason, it’s working for him.
