Sepultura plans to wrap up their career at one final show sometime in 2026 in São Paulo, Brazil and guitarist Andreas Kisser would love it if former frontman Max Cavalera and former drummer Igor Cavalera could be there. Kisser previously invited the Cavalera brothers to come jam at the final show, though Max has made it clear that he has zero intention of doing so.
Still, Kisser said in an interview with Reality Check TV that he hopes the Cavalera brothers and other former members can come out and make one final appearance with Sepultura.
"I hope so. The idea is to do a very last show [in 2026] in São Paulo, Brazil, where we have all the guests, friends to celebrate our history," said Kisser. "There's no reason to be fighting. We just go on stage, enjoy ourselves. We know how to play the songs. It's gonna be a party for the fans. Forty years of history, it's a lot — many albums, many different changes and different styles of music. And it's gonna be an amazing party — I hope so — and hopefully everybody will be a part [of it]."
When asked in a 2024 interview with Metal Injection, Max Cavalera said the only reunion that mattered to him was one with Igor. Which has been happening quite extensively as the Cavalera brothers revisit their early Sepultura material.
"The more the time passes by, the more I feel that I don't need to. Like I said, the real reunion is between myself and Igor, and I did that," said Max. "It's pure magic and amazing what we're doing right now. You kind of have to realize if we end up doing a Sepultura reunion, it's almost like we can't go back to the Cavalera thing, You know? It won't really make sense.
"People probably will be like 'I don't want to go watch Cavalera if they're doing a 'real' reunion.' To me, I don't want to do that because I love what we have here in Cavalera now. It's so bad ass. So yeah, it's definitely out of the question. You can ask Igor the same question. He doesn't want to do it either. I think people can just give up, it's not gonna happen man. It's not gonna happen."
