CAVALERA has become synonymous with extreme metal music, a name that to this day still holds the highest regard, a family legacy built upon decades of musical aggression. In 2023, Max and Iggor Cavalera achieved what some would say was an impossible feat; they revisited their earliest releases, Morbid Visions, and Bestial Devastation, and re-recorded them with bone-breaking intensity. A risk that few would dare to even attempt, yet they artfully and prolifically attained their trademark raw sound by means that could only be described as magic or time travel.
With the obvious success of their recent re-recordings, it is guaranteed that the Cavalera duo will be bringing their top-notch energy and proficiency to reviving CHAOS A.D. on stage. Songs like 'Refuse/Resist', 'Territory', 'Slave New World' and 'Propaganda' have been heralded as anthems for the underdogs, and to witness these tracks brought back to life is nothing short of a blessing. CHAOS A.D. is still regarded as one of the most influential recordings of the 90’s, garnering them Gold Record status and a benchmark in the halls of heavy metal history.
This Fall, CAVALERA will kick off their Fall Tour performing Chaos AD in its entirety on September 18th at Louder Than Life. The 18-date trek will include performances in Hershey, PA with SLAYER, in Hammond, Indiana with LAMB OF GOD as well as Sacramento, CA for the Aftershock Festival before concluding in Dallas, Texas on October 18th. Joining the brothers for select dates are none other than Industrial metal pioneers and label-mates FEAR FACTORY. This marks a reunion of sorts as CAVALERA took FEAR FACTORY on the initial Chaos AD US tour 31 years ago.
General admission tickets are now on sale!

In this jaw-dropping episode of THE CLASSIC METAL SHOW, Neeley shares details of his birthday dinner with Sal, but that’s just the appetizer. We dive into a controversial new breast cancer medication that might be more harmful than helpful. Then, we stir the pot by debating the worst heavy metal band ever. But wait, it gets spicier with a discussion on real dolls at CES and an AI-generated erotic story. Is this the future of entertainment or a step too far?
Why is everyone still suing Michael Jackson's estate? Neeley and Chris are giving their honest take on the skepticism surrounding the latest legal battle and reviewing the trailer for the upcoming MICHAEL biopic. We're also talking about the tragedy of the woman who fell off the cruise ship and the infuriating new trend of "seat squatting" on planes.

All,
I'm making a few changes over here. My work situation is changing, and with it comes the amount of time I have going forward.
1. Effective immediately, I'm no longer going to be curating THE CMS NETWORK. My shows are still going to be available on the platforms I've built, but I won't be doing the processing of the other shows going forward. There's no bad blood with anyone - I just don't have time anymore. If this effects you and you need to know how to follow other shows on YouTube, Rumble or whatever, let me know and I'll happily point you in the right direction.
2. The one show that IS changing that I'm a part of is Chris Akin Presents... The live Tuesday show with Erik and I has officially ended. Again, zero bad blood - I love Erik as a brother and will always help him with whatever he's doing. Right now, in my eyes though, I a. don't have time like I used to, and b. Don't want to interfere with Erik's unleashed channel by splitting the audience any. ERIK FERENTINOS UNLEASHED is ...
Warrant's Jani Lane wrote hooks that Bon Jovi seemingly stole for their pop empire—'Uncle Tom's Cabin' has more depth than 'Wanted Dead or Alive.' Jovi's just cowboy cosplay.
