Additional notes:
Nailbomb was only supposed to be a side-project by Max Cavalera and Alex Newport that consequently split-up after the only live gig at the Dynamo festival in 1995 where the album Proud to Commit Commercial Suicide was recorded.
Howerer, in April 2017 Max announced that he will play the entire 'Point Blank' album with his band Soulfly, later in 2017. Alex Newport is not set to take part in these performances, with Max citing his busy schedule as the reason.
Max Cavalera is originally from Belo Horizonte and Alex Newport from Wolverhampton, England. They now both reside in Phoenix, Arizona.
