Arizona-based metal trio Go Ahead and Die—featuring Sepultura’s Max Cavalera and his son, Igor Amadeus Cavalera Jr.—released its second album last year.

Unhealthy Mechanisms centers around the ongoing mental health crisis, and one of its songs, “Tumors,” talks about how an overload of toxicity and backstabbing needs to be removed before it can spread like cancer or a tumor. “Drug-O-Cop” is the ultimate ACAB anthem.

“I’ve always used my music to speak out against injustice, frustration, corruption. In my opinion, you wouldn’t have extreme-metal without punk, so why not mix the two together?” Max wrote in a statement.

Orlando-based metal band Bodybox opens what appears to be Go Ahead And Die’s first-ever show in Tampa.

Tickets to see Go Ahead and Die play Tampa Orpheum on Saturday, Feb. 3 are still available and start at $20.
