Max Cavalera named his band – Soulfly – thanks to ‘Headup’ from “Around the Fur”. Here’s Max own words:
Max Cavalera: “The name came up on the Deftones ‘Around the Fur’ record (..) we wrote ‘Headup’ together. On ‘Headup’ says SOULFLY on it (…) And when we did this TV show, I announced the name (…) when I played with them… I grabbed the mic and said ‘Hey I have a new band, it’s called Soulfly…’ and then we announced it right there.”
