In this conversation, Max opens up about recording the new album alongside his sons, Zyon and Igor, and how working together reignited his “Inner Flame.” He reveals how UFC fighter Alex Pereira’s walkout to a Soulfly song sparked the concept for Chama, a record that fuses tribal rhythm, primal energy, and modern aggression.From burying analogue tapes with Chino Moreno in Indian Burial Grounds to refusing click tracks in the studio, Max shares his belief that imperfection is what makes music alive. He speaks about the ritualistic process behind Chama, the tribal-meets-technology production approach, and how the album captures the essence of Soulfly’s legacy.
