It’s the end of an era! The iconic Brazilian metal band Sepultura has announced their decision to split after an impressive 40 years of existence. Luckily for their fans they plan to bid farewell with a special 2024 farewell tour that will span 18 months and take them across the world. During this tour, they will record 40 live tracks in 40 different cities, creating a massive compilation of “their best and most energetic moments on stage“.
For the European leg of their World Tour they are bringing Jinjer, Obituary and Jesus Piece along with them. This part of their world tour will start in Paris, France on 30 October and will end in Prague, Czech Republic on 23 November. Sepultura will be performing in Belgium on 5 November at the Ancienne Belgique in the heart of Brussels.
The bands statement:
Sepultura has reached the end of the road and has chosen to depart via a conscious and planned death.
Throughout the next 18 months we will celebrate 40 years of existence together along with our loyal fans on a farewell tour across the entire globe.
It will be a celebration of the past and the present for one final time.
After 4 decades filled with ups and downs, having visited 80 countries and countless different cultures, we’ve had the chance to become Brazil’s messenger to the world and spread our colours and rhythms worldwide. With our latest studio album Quadra, a highlight of our career, we added an unforgettable chapter followed by the SepulQuarta experience that helped us to overcome the difficult times of the pandemic together. We will unite our forces for one final, strong farewell. And all of you can be a part of it.
During this 40th anniversary tour, we will record 40 live tracks in 40 different cities and release a massive compilation of our best, most energetic moments on stage.
We are happy and very grateful for everything we could witness within the past four decades. We have released great albums and played unforgettable shows, cultivated friendships, met our idols, contributed to placing Brazilian metal on the world map, and therefore feel that we can leave the music scene with a sense of duty fulfilled.We’ve always had the best fans in the world, who supported us with praise and criticism, who were demanding and intelligent, who grew together with the band and have always been loyal. Without you, none of this would have been possible. This album and this tour are for you. Dear SepulNation – we love you and always will!
Euthanasia, the right to a dignified death. The right to choose to live free and to choose when you die!”
