Soulfly join GWAR on The Gor Gor Strikes Back Tour
Arizona extreme metal trailblazers Soulfly are set to join intergalactic shock rock legends GWAR on their extensive spring headlining run, The Gor Gor Strikes Back Tour. This 34-date journey begins March 19th in Richmond, Virginia, and will include performances in major markets like Boston, Green Bay, and Portland before concluding in Charlotte, NC, on April 29th. Australian grind icons King Parrot will serve as the opening act for all dates.
Max Cavalera states, “I can’t wait for Soulfly to storm the gates with GWAR!! I’m excited to be part of one of the coolest tours of 2026! Soulfly bringing the Chama tribal energy and GWAR, the ultimate theatrical madness band! I have been a fan of GWAR for a long time. It will be an honor to support them! Come on out and party with us every night!!”
GWAR’s lead vocalist The Berserker Blothar states, “GWAR, Soulfly and King Parrot. This tour will be a ritual orgy of death, sex, violence, and rock and fu**ing roll!! Let the severed heads rain, bouncing down the pyramid onto a heap of human skulls. Be there humans, or be left to suffer on this planet while we party in the stars!”

Chama was recorded at the Platinum Underground Studio in Mesa, Arizona by John Aquilino.

The latter was also responsible for the mixing and mastering. Rizk has not only worked with the Cavalera family numerous times before, but has also helped to shape the world of heavy metal in the modern day. Soulfly enlisted Carletta Parrish to create the album artwork. For the album, Igor Amadeus Cavalera (Go Ahead & Die, Nailbomb, Healing Magic) played bass and Mike De Leon played guitar. The album also includes features from Dino Cazares (Fear Factory) and Todd Jones (Nails).
