Drummer Igor Cavalera has officially announced his departure from Sepultura (as exclusively reported by Blabbermouth.net on January 13, 2006 and subsequently denied by both the band and Igor).
In a statement released today (June 12) to the Brazilian media, Igor attributed the split to "artistic incompatibility" with his Sepultura bandmates — guitarist Andreas Kisser, bassist Paulo Xisto Pinto Jr. and vocalist Derrick Green.
"I believe my mission in Sepultura has come to an end," Igor said in the statement. "I am very proud of everything we have done, but I feel that the group’s current formation no longer lives up to my expectations as a musician and a person. Since my last European tour with Sepultura, which took place in December 2004, I have sensed that my ideas were not compatible with those of the rest of the band."
Igor, who hasn’t performed with Sepultura since 2005, noticed that his personal ambitions were worlds apart from those of the other members of the group and he felt slightly detached from the creative process of Sepultura.
"After working in a band for so many years, the relationship between me and the rest of the group wore itself out and I feel that there is no longer a compatibility of thoughts and ideas between us," he said. "I tried to make this clear to the other guys and suggested that we take a break. However, their priority was to continue playing despite my absence."
As a drummer and musician, Igor will carry on and says he us looking forward to incorporating new sounds and influences — such as hip hop, hardcore, tribal percussion and electronic music — into his future projects to produce something authentic and real, similar to what Sepultura once represented in his life.
According to Igor, the decision to leave Sepultura was one of the most difficult in his career, since he — as one of the band’s co-founders — dedicated most of his life to it.
"I would really like to thank all of the fans that supported me and continue supporting our music," he said. "I would also like to thank everybody that worked to make Sepultura the band that it had become."
