Soulfly – Omen artwork available + Marc Rizzo talks about the album!

Julia Neuman of Metal Assault conducted an interview with Soulfly guitarist Marc Rizzo on March 20, 2010 at Alrosa Villa in Columbus, Ohio.

A couple of excerpts from the chat follow below.

Metal Assault: [Soulfly's new album] "Omen" is scheduled for release on May 25. What really stands out about this album for you?

Marc: It's right to the point. There's a real hardcore, punk vibe to the record. Short tunes. This record is kind of different for us and I think the fans are going to like it a lot.

Metal Assault: Which album are you most proud of to date and why?

Marc: The Cavalera Conspiracy record is really special to me because I was such a big fan of Max and Igor [Cavalera, former Sepultura and current Cavalera Conspiracy drummer] when they were in Sepultura. For them to ask me to be a part of that record was really exciting. I think we put out a great record that will stand the test of time.
