Album information Max Cavalera has this to say about the second Cavalera Conspiracy album on blabbermouth.net: "Yeah, (we) just got done (in May), so I just got back from the studio. It's finished. We recorded 15 songs, 13 being originals for the album, and then we did a Black Sabbath cover, ' Electric Funeral', that's gonna come out on a Metal Hammer compilation in Europe.
