The Brazilian artist of Bulgarian rootsВ who was presented to you here yesterday talked to us for this exclusive interview:
DID YOU GET CALLS FROM LOTS OF OTHER BANDS AFTER DOING THE SEPULTURA ARTWORK?
Yeah, so many bands man. It’s really impressive how huge Sepultura is. I felt that when I did this work for them. Sepultura have fans everywhere. – in Japan, in Africa, South America, everywhere.
WELL LIVING IN BRAZIL YOU ARE IN A POSITION TO GIVE US AN INSIGHTВ – IS THE DEPARTURE OF THE CAVALERA BROTHERS DEEPLY REGRETTED BY THE FANS IN THEIR HOMELAND?
Well a lot of fans seem to be unhappy with that but the true fans respect that choice you know. And they are back together now.
I MEAN THIS IS THE ORIGINAL LAND FOR THE BAND SO WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE ORIGINAL FANS THINK….OK – YOU RESPECT SOULFLY AND THE CAVALERA CONSIPRACY AND SEPULTURA WITH DERRICK GREEN AT THE SAME TIME?
Yes of course! You know, Derrick is my friend, so I love his work but I also think that we have 3 different very good bands now. They all came from those roots. So it’s good I think.
YOU SAID YOU HAVE BEEN A BIG FAN OF SEPULTURA’S MUSIC BUT WHAT KIND OF MUSIC ARE YOU INTO THESE DAYS?
Well I listen to a lot of punk rock in general. I have always been a fan of punk hardcore like Minor Threat, Bad Brains, Black Flag, 7 Seconds – all these old school bands. I am into metal and hip hop as well.
