Watch: Ex-SEPULTURA Drummer IGOR ‘IGGOR’ CAVALERA Performs In London During 2025 Solo U.K. Tour

Earlier this month, former SEPULTURA drummer Igor “Iggor” Cavalera launched a solo tour of the United Kingdom during which he is performing electronic music from the repertoire of his solo discography inspired by the varied sub genres of avant-garde, drone, industrial and harsh noise.

Fan-filmed video of Cavalera‘s February 7 performance at No90 Live in London can be seen below.

Along with older brother Max Cavalera, Igor is a founding member of the Brazilian thrash metal band SEPULTURA. Igor is now the drummer for CAVALERA, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, SOULWAX, PETBRICK and other projects. Cavalera is one half of the DJ duo MIXHELL, an electronic music project he founded with his wife, Laima Leyton, in 2006. With MIXHELL, he has toured the globe, performing in festivals such as Glastonbury, Bestival and Reading.

In 2013, Igor moved to London with his family and in 2016 joined the Belgian band SOULWAX, recording drums for their album “From Deewee” and touring as part of “Transient Program For Drums And Machinery”. Soon after, he founded PETBRICK with Wayne Adams — a project that involved melting noise and crushing electronics over grinding drumming.

Igor has been performing live with analog modular gear, drum pads and visuals for intimate crowds at experimental festivals such as Dio Drone (Florence) and clubs such as Cafe Oto and Iklectik (London). His latest releases include “Aural Manifestations” on Damian Records in America and Deepthroat Records in Europe and “Alucinações Sônicas” on Hospital Productions.

Igor left SEPULTURA in June 2006 due to “artistic differences.” His departure from the band came five months after he announced that he was taking a break from SEPULTURA‘s touring activities to spend time with his second wife and their son (who was born in January 2006).

In 1996, Igor‘s brother, frontman Max Cavalera, exited SEPULTURA after the rest of the band split with Max‘s wife Gloria as their manager.
