Special Edition CD/DVD set includes three bonus tracks. The bonus DVD features a previously unreleased full concert from Warsaw, Poland, 2005. The Soulfly tribe is once again on the warpath. Soulfly' s sixth offering for Roadrunner Records, Conquer, may very well be the musical equivalent of the movie Braveheart. The songs much like the warriors in the film- channel raw, unbridled rage through a cacophony of thrash guitars, infectious grooves, tribal polyrhythms and Max Cavalera' s unmistakable, thunderous roar. On this record, Soulfly unleash a metallic mayhem unlike anything they' ve done previously. Conquer shifts from unrelenting, precise speed metal to slow, brooding doom. Marc Rizzo' s lead guitar rips with the precision of a smart bomb, while Bobby Burns grinds out volatile, chest-caving bass lines. Drummer Joe Nunez crushes behind the kit, forging a rhythmic background for all-out sonic war. Once again, it s the legendary Max Cavalera who stands at the eye of the storm, uniting the musical tribe and acting as its unofficial leader. His voice and guitar command the tribe into battle with each line and riff. Grab your war paint and prepare for the onslaught.

GREAT-EXCELLENT-PERFECT:
I HEARD SOULFLY PLAYING ON YOUTUBE-PRIMITIVE...AND IT SOUNDED ALRIGHT. AFTER I BOUGHT "INFLIKTED-CAVALERA CONSPIRACY" I HEARD THEM PLAY ON HEADBANGERSBALL, TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE ALBUM CAME OUT, AND MAX SOUNDS JUST LIKE SEPULTURA DAYS- I BOUGHT THE ALBUM AND IT IS NO DESSAPOINMENT. I WENT AND BOUGHT EVEN THE "DARK AGES" ALBUM WHICH SOUNDS LIKE "ROOTS BLOODY ROOTS" OR CHAOS A.D. IF YOU LIKE OLD SEPULTURA, YOU'LL DEFINETELY LIKE THIS ONE. ALSO BUY THE NEW CAVALERA CONSPIRACY ALBUM.
