Nuclear Blast is a German independent label that specializes in metal and related music styles. Founded in 1987 by Markus Staiger, the label has become a prominent force in the metal industry. With their headquarters located in Donzdorf, Germany, Nuclear Blast Europe serves as a label, mailorder service, wholesale distributor, fulfillment service, and distribution center for several labels across Europe. In addition to their European presence, Nuclear Blast America operates as a US company with similar business tasks in collaboration with Century Media. They also have a South American branch working alongside Century Media.

A typical Nuclear Blast catalogue number follows the format "NB XXXX-F", where F represents the format of the release. This can vary but generally includes limited first editions (such as Digipak or O-Card) for both CD and DVD (-0), LPs or other vinyl formats (-1), jewelcase CDs or promo CDs/DVDs (-2), video tapes or tapes (-3/-4), box sets or limited mailorder editions with bonus CDs/DVDs (-5), some vinyl 7”s (-7), shape CDs (-8), and picture vinyls (-9). Earlier releases may only have three digits.

With an extensive catalog of metal music and an authoritative presence in the industry, Nuclear Blast continues to be a leading label for fans of heavy music

Soulfly is a metal band that was formed in 1997 by Max Cavalera, who had previously been a member of Sepultura. The band is based in Phoenix, Arizona.

With their heavy sound and intense energy, Soulfly has become a prominent force in the metal music scene. Drawing inspiration from various genres including thrash metal, groove metal, and nu metal, they have created a unique and powerful sound that captivates audiences worldwide.

Similar to other notable bands like Machine Head, Fear Factory, and Lamb of God, Soulfly delivers hard-hitting riffs and aggressive vocals that resonate with fans of heavy music. Their discography includes numerous successful albums such as *Primitive*, *Dark Ages*, and *Enslaved*.

Two decades into their storied career, Soulfly continue to engender near cultish zeal with each subsequent album and tour. In that sense, the group’s eleventh full-length, Ritual, lives up to the promise of its name with a metallic ceremony of the highest order. Returning from the road, they hit the studio with Grammy Award-winning producer Josh Wilbur [Lamb of God, Trivium, All That Remains] for the very first time. Drawing on longtime fandom, he immediately clicked with the musicians from behind the board. A tribal chant builds behind an eerie wail before transforming into a neck-snapping groove on the album opener and title track Ritual. Elsewhere, double bass drives Evil Empowered as deft shredding steamrolls towards a soaring scream of “Rise above.” Continuing a long tradition of friends and family joining the ceremony, Dead Behind The Eyes welcomes Lamb of God singer Randy Blythe into the fray. He and Max lock into a deadly call-and-response in homage to Hellraiser that’s as vicious as it is vital.
