Album information

During the writing of the album Max Cavalera almost considered naming the album "Fuck That Groove" because of how fast and brutal the songs ended up. In an interview with Loudwire, Max admitted to putting his brother Igor to the test, “It’s like trying to make him play fast like he’s 15-years-old … You’re gonna play fast the whole time and every time he was in a groove, I’d say, ‘Fuck the groove, get out of the groove and go back to fast.” [2]

A new song titled "Bonzai Kamikaze" was uploaded to Napalm's official Soundcloud in August. The song is about Japanese kamikaze pilots and their fervor to commit suicide for their country.
