MetalSucks placedPuciatoat #1 on their list of the Top 25 Modern Metal Frontmen, but he also expresses himself through the dark electro-pop ofTHE BLACK QUEEN, together withNINE INCH NAILStouring guitaristJosh EustisofTELEFONTEL AVIVandMaynard James Keenan'sPUSCIFER.Puciatomade a guest appearance in 2012 withMIXHELL, the DJ project ofMax's brother,SEPULTURAco-founderIggor Cavalera.
Cavalerais no stranger to collaborations, of course, having invited multiple guests ontoSEPULTURA's genre-definingRootsandSOULFLY's gold-selling debut album in 1998. One suchSOULFLYguest,Chino Moreno, has often joinedPuciatoonstage with bothTHE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLANandDEFTONES.Maxwas one-half of the incendiaryNAILBOMB, together with English record producer andFUDGE TUNNELmastermindAlex Newport. The pair released one studio album in 1993 and performed a blistering set at the Dynamo Festival in 1995.
"We did the song on SOULFLY's "Omen" and then we started talking about doing an entire album together, the way he had with Alex Newport,"Puciatoexplains."We eventually got together with some riffs we both had and wrote a bunch more material in a 72-hour blast out in the desert. We left with about 15 demos we made using the same drum machine and four track Max used working on "Chaos A.D.""
Cognizant of the reputation both of them have cultivated after working with some of the world's best drummers,Puciatocalled uponDavid Elitch, who had toured internationally with the mind-bendingly psychedelic groupTHE MARS VOLTA. His expertise in everything from jazz to metal has led to live and studio collaborations with a diverse range of major artists includingJustin Timberlake, French electronic wizardsM83and Norwegian singer-songwriterSusanne Sundfør.
KILLER BE KILLEDhas come together even as their main projects hit a collective stride:Maxjust released his ninth studio album withSOULFLY,"Savages", to many of the strongest reviews of his legendary career.THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN's"One Of Us Is The Killer"debuted at #1 on Billboard's Hard Rock Album chart earlier this year.MASTODON's most recent album,"The Hunter", was Album Of The Year in Kerrang!, Metal Hammer, Rock Sound, Classic Rock, Terrorizer and TotalGuitar in 2011.
MASTODONandTHE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLANhave toured together many times. During one such tour in the U.S., in late 2011,Puciatowas tellingSandersabout the new project. Before too long,SandersandCavalerawere meeting at a festival in South America for the first time:"Hey, I'm Troy. And I think we're in a band together."
The electric chemistry was apparent the first time they all assembled."Having met, created and recorded an album together, this experience has easily exceeded my initial expectations,"saysSanders."The collective energy and mutual respect for one another eased the entire process and has been very therapeutic for me."
