Max Cavalera and his SOULFLY cohorts have confirmed a few ‘extra’ dates while they’re here for their Sonisphere appearance at the end of this month.

SOULFLY’s latest album, ‘Omen’, by far the band’s most ‘in your face’, punk leaning CD, is in stores now. In true Soulfly tradition, ‘Omen’ features a few notable guest appearances. Of the collaborations, Cavalera said; “The first one is a song with Tommy Victor from Prong sharing vocals on a song called ‘Lethal Injection.’ The other is ‘Rise of the Fallen,’ with shared vocals from Greg Puciato, Dillinger Escape Plan's singer. I also recorded two B-sides with both of my sons playing drums. Igor Cavalera plays on Exel's ‘Your Life, My Life,’ and Zyon Cavalera plays on Sepultura's ‘Refuse/Resist’.”

A special edition of the album is available, featuring three bonus cover versions; the aforementioned Exel and Sepultura tracks, plus Led Zeppelin’s ‘Four Sticks’. Also included in the package is a DVD which features the music video for ‘Unleash’ plus a full length set of the band’s performance at Germany’s ‘With Full Force Festival’ last July.

SOULFLY will return for further UK touring later this year.
