In 2007, Rizzo became a member of CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, the side project of Sepultura co-founders, brothers Max and Iggor Cavalera, and has performed on all Cavalera Conspiracy releases including INFLIKTED, BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA, PANDEMONIUM, and the critically acclaimed 2017 release PSYCHOSIS. Originally a member of New Jersey latin-metal favorites ILL NINO, appearing on their classic 2001 Roadrunner release REVOLUTION REVOLUCION, and the 2003 follow-up CONFESSION, Rizzo joined SOULFLY in 2004, and has since appeared on all subsequent Soulfly records including PROPHECY, DARK AGES, CONQUER, OMEN, ENSLAVED, SAVAGES, and ARCHANGEL. Produced by Chris “Zeuss” Harris (Hatebreed, Soulfly, Rob Zombie, Chimaira), and featuring cover art by Melody Myers (Escape The Fate), “Rotation” is a blistering showcase of Rizzo’s pummeling eclectic diversity, showcased on album tracks including “Spectral Intensities”, “Thrash Boogie”, and title track “Rotation”, combining Rizzo’s penchant for pummeling, low-end riffs, with thrash-intensive leads and heavy latin flavor.Ĭheck out an album teaser featuring “Spectral Intensities” Below: “Rotation”, featuring cover art by Melody Myers (Escape The Fate, Combat Bullets), is the 4th solo release for Rizzo, following 2004’s “Colossal Myopia”, 2006’s “The Ultimate Devotion” (both released by legendary shred label Shrapnel), and the independently released 2010 LP “Legionnaire”.

Marc Rizzo Livestream Video – Oct.SOULFLY/CAVALERA CONSPIRACY guitarist Marc Rizzo has announced a NYC listening party for his new LP “Rotation”, in stores now via Combat Records. Rizzo’s remarks start at 2:15 in the clip below. And when dudes get in a room and just talk and work out anything from the past, good things can come out of it.” Don’t bring in managers and people’s freaking girlfriends and wives. “Everyone loves a good reunion,” Rizzo adds, “and the fact that me and Ill Niño are working together again, it just goes to show that things can happen when everybody can meet up and talk and keep it between dudes. Rizzo seemed to offer a veiled critique of Soulfly in his video, apparently placing the blame for the split on “managers and … girlfriends and wives.” Gloria Cavalera, Max’s wife, is Soulfly’s longtime manager. We decided to part ways with him due to personal reasons. “For the tribe, I wanna address something that is going on,” the Soulfly bandleader said in an Aug. Fear Factory’s Dino Cazares took Rizzo’s place for live shows. Max made clear Rizzo was fired. In August, Soulfly revealed they’d parted with Rizzo after 18 years. I’m very excited to reconnect with my friends.” Yes, I’m rejoining the band, which is awesome. They’re gonna be announcing this very soon, and I’m very excited. I’ll probably - well, I am gonna do a tour with them soon, and we’ll see what the future holds, man. He continues, “It’s great to reconnect with Laz and Dave and work with the new singer, Marcos, who’s an incredible singer. It’s not the band it was … from back when I was in the band, when I left in 2002. Rizzo says, “We will be announcing it soon but I’m doing some recording for the new Ill Niño record. Watch the video down toward the bottom of this post.
Both Cavaleras were founding members of Sepultura. Rizzo went on to contribute to eight Soulfly albums as well as several by Cavalera Conspiracy, the Soulfly offshoot featuring Cavalera and his brother, drummer Igor Cavalera. He then left Ill Niño and joined Soulfly. It’s the latest twist in the story that finds the 44-year-old guitarist returning to the band with which he recorded 2001’s Revolution Revolución. Rizzo announced as much in a YouTube livestream this week, wherein he also appeared to take a swipe at his former outfit.
Marc Rizzo, the Soulfly guitarist recently dismissed from the Max Cavalera-led heavy metal act for “personal reasons,” has rejoined Ill Niño, the Latin metal group with whom he previously performed.
