I feel like Max Cavalera takes a very punk rock approach to writing heavy metal songs. He keeps it simple, but when it works, it works. And, with their new track, “We Sold Our Souls To Metal,” it absolutely works. I think you can figure out what the song is about, but just in case, here's an explanation from Max:
“This lyric video is a celebration of all forms of Metal. This song was written as an anthem for Metalheads all over the world! We gathered footage and photos from our Tribe, showing how free the spirit of Metal really is. Respect!”
