'90s Heavy Metal Band Releases Dates for 2026 Tour

The 1990s heavy metal pioneers are about to ignite U.K. stages once again.

Soulfly, fronted by Max Cavalera, announced a special collaboration with his side project, the thrash metal group Nailbomb, for a five-day concert run.

In an Instagram post, the band unveiled the back-to-back schedule in September, covering major cities starting in Southampton, followed by London, Birmingham, Glasgow and Manchester.

Sept. 3 Southampton, UK @ Engine Rooms

Sept. 4 London, UK @ Electric Ballroom

Sept. 5 Birmingham, UK @ O2 Institute

Sept. 6 Glasgow, UK @ SWG3 TV Studio

Sept. 7 Manchester, UK @ Academy 2

The upcoming event is monumental for Cavalera since the five-date headlining tour will be the band's first in 30 years.

"I waited 30 years to bring Nailbomb to the UK, and to team them up with Soulfly, it's gonna be Hurricane Soulfly – Nailbomb. This is the ultimate Tribal Technology Tour," the lead vocalist shared.

Besides the band, fans are also thrilled to see the amazing lineup.

"OMG!!! I'm literally bouncing about the place in excitement," one wrote.

"This is going to be an incredible gig!" a fan echoed.

"This is pure fire!" a commenter said.

"No pressure but this should really happen in other countries (Sweden) too," a follower mentioned, suggesting tour expansion for Soulfly and Nailbomb concerts.

One fan also expressed concern for the frontman who will be playing for the two bands, noting, "Back-to-back duty for Max. Man, that must be exhausting."

The U.K. run will be part of Soulfly's Tribal Technology Tour, the band's major European summer music tour.

The event will support their thirteenth studio album, Chama, released in 2025.

Fans will get to see Soulfly perform their classic hits like "Bleed," "Back to the Primitive," their mosh-pit anthem "Jumpdafuckup" and their recent tracks, the lead single "Storm The Gates" and more.
