Soulfly Trivia

1. What's the name of a Native American tribe performing in the first and title track, "Ritual"?

From Quiz Ritual

Answer: Navajo

All four of the tribes listed in the choice are located in Arizona, Soulfly's home state, including the correct answer - Navajo. There are two Navajo tribes performing chants while one of them beats the drum in the very first part of the first track before the metal riffing begins. It's weird to know that the song which is about the ritual of metal and life almost didn't make the album. Many reviewers say this song is very similar to Max-era Sepultura and early Soulfly.

Answer: Pink Floyd

"I don't know why we did that. I still don't know if it was the right thing, but it came out like that. Marc [Rizzo] just did some really crazy guitars at the end of it that is just, like... It goes from total metal into crazy Pink Floyd, but it works. I mean, it's really wild. And we like wild stuff. I always was drawn to weird, weird stuff, and that's definitely weird, in a good way." --Max Cavalera, Soulfly vocalist and guitarist The tenth Pink Floyd album was of course "Animals".

Out of the first ten Soulfly albums, "Archangel" was only their third album released during an odd-numbered year, the others were "Dark Ages" (2005) and their previous album "Savages" (2013). 2006 and 2014 were the only even-numbered years prior to their tenth album release without a new Soulfly record.

'The Summoning' was first played live on June 28, 2018, nearly four months before the parent album came out. It has never been released as a single and began leaking online around the time the album was released. 'The Summoning' has catchy lyric lines - 'Will you take my soul?' and 'Will you take my heart?'.

From Quiz Match the Song Title Clue to the Album

Answer: Soulfly 1

Giving you two clues is better than one, so you'll easily know the answer as "Tribe". Tribe is the nickname given to Soulfly fanbase, as well as the description of their logo. Hence the song title that is also the fourth single unveiled by the band, "Tribe" has uses of tribal instruments in them, such as berimbau and tambora. This is one of the most frequent Soulfly songs played in concerts.

From Quiz Soulfly X

Answer: Tony Campos

Despite that Igor Cavalera Jr. was the Soulfly member at the time when "Archangel" was released, Tony Campos laid out bass tracks for this album before he left the band more than three months before this album came out, so he was credited as the main bassist on "Archangel". Mike Leon replaced Igor a month after the album was released. Marcelo Dias was the original Soulfly bassist who left the band after playing bass for their first three albums.

From Quiz Soul on the Fly

In contrary to the question, the song "Mars" doesn't talk about it as a planet, but about the God of War.

From Quiz Soulfly Tracks

From Quiz Soulfly

Answer: Eye for an Eye

In addition to being the first single, "Eye for an Eye" was the first track from the eponymous debut album, "Soulfly". Two out of three wrong choices were also songs from this album. "Back to the Primitive" is the exception as it was released on the 2000 album titled "Primitive". The song "Bleed" was the first video ever released by Soulfly.

From Quiz Match the Song Title Clue to the Album

Answer: 3

The song were talking about is "Four Elements", which appears on their third Soulfly album, "3". The song was going to be called "Throwdown" before Max Cavalera changed it to "Four Elements", before it was released. In the background sense of the term, the four elements, earth, wind, fire and water, were believed in the Classical Times to be the root components in which everything in the world were made of. In the Soulfly song though, the "Four Elements" are heart, soul, fist, and mind mentioned in the lyrics.

From Quiz Soulfly X

Answer: Todd Jones

Todd Jones, member of the band Nails, is the guest vocalist on the third track of the tenth Soulfly album that is about Sodom getting decimated by God. Al Jourgensen, from Ministry, was originally proposed to be the guest singer on "Sodomites". Tom Angelripper was the main vocalist for the band Sodom, a non-derivative form of this song's title. If I were Max Cavalera, I would choose Angelripper to be the guest vocalist on "Sodomites", just because of the resemblance in titles. Justin Broadrick was the Godflesh vocalist, who could've been the guest singer on this too as riffing on "Sodomites" is similar in style to Godflesh, although Cavalera didn't think about him maybe.

From Quiz Soulfly: 1st and 10

"Soulfly" has fifteen standard tracks and "Archangel" has ten standard tracks, yielding 25 standard tracks combined. Each of these albums have three additional bonus tracks (excluding the 25th anniversary bonus track for "Soulfly"), bumping up to 31 tracks combined.

From Quiz Soulfly vs. World History

Answer: Boston Red Sox

"Prophecy" was released on March 30, 2004, seven months before the Red Sox ended their 86-year World Series championship drought in late October. "Dark Ages" was the first Soulfly album released since the Red Sox won their first championship in the digital era. Imagine if there are baseball prophets, they would have correctly predicted that Red Sox will win the World Series in 2004 before the 2004 baseball season even began! St. Louis Cardinals were the team the Red Sox beat in the World Series. Chicago White Sox would win their first World Series Champions the following year for the first time since the year before the Red Sox won previously. Chicago Cubs still haven't won the World Series since 1908, but they could've won the last World Series until "Prophecy" was released. There is another Soulfly album released in the same year the Red Sox won the World Series: "Savages" in 2013.

From Quiz Soulflyrics

Answer: Redemption of Man By God

The verse where "Redemption of man by God" is spoken alternates with "Blood redemption, blood redemption." In case you don't know it, redemption means reconciling human sin by God.

From Quiz Soulfly

Answer: 1

Even though the band's fourth album was released in 2004, it doesn't necessarily mean that four singles were released from the album. Soulfly didn't comply with numeric logic as the album released one single, the title first track "Prophecy". The other albums in which a single single was released are "Omen" and "Enslaved", both albums being released later in the band's career. The debut album had four singles.

From Quiz Ritual

Answer: Immolation

Ross Dolan, member of the death metal band Immolation, performs death vocals in the song "Under Rapture". The song essentially has three relatively distinctive parts with Dolan only appearing in the second part. The single for "Under Rapture", along with the lyric video, was released on the same date as the album's release.

From Quiz Match the Song Title Clue to the Album

Answer: Conquer

Soulfly unleashed the single "Unleash" a month before "Conquer" came out. This song features Dave Peters of Cattle Decapitation and some thought this is a Pantera-like song. "Unleash" is about making the war more devastating.

From Quiz Soulfly X

Answer: Rising

The lyrics of "Ishtar Rising" are obviously about Ishtar, the Babylonian goddess of fertility, love, sex, and war. The song was originally titled "Ishtar" before 'Rising' was added before track listing for this album was revealed.

From Quiz Soulfly: 1st and 10

Answer: one

Frontman and vocalist Max Cavalera is the only person in the world to continuously appear in every Soulfly album, including both "Soulfly" and "Archangel". After Cavalera, guitarist Jackson Bandeira, bassist Marcelo Dias, and drummer Roy Mayorga were members on the first album, while guitarist Marc Rizzo, bassist Tony Campos, and drummer Zyon Cavalera (Max's son) were members of the tenth album. Campos left Soulfly three-and-a-half months before "Archangel" was released, to join Fear Factory, but he was credited for recording the bass for the tenth album prior. "Archangel" is the seventh album (since "Prophecy") with Rizzo, third with Campos (since "Enslaved"), and second with Zyon (since "Savages"). Meanwhile, Bandeira quit the band for good after the debut album, Dias quit after releasing their third album (titled "3"), and Mayorga skipped the second album ("Primitive") and quit after the third album.
