Formed by ex-Sepultura frontman, Max Cavalera, Soulfly circles sacred themes of spirituality, mother earth, and religion with an unholy blast and dirge. Those who consider themselves devout, or at least devout to the metal may want to genuflect with horned hand held high at this one.

Soulfly performs with Million Miles From Broadway on Wednesday, October 8, at The Club @ Water Street Music Hall, 204 North Water Street. 8 p.m. Free for 21 and over; $10 for under 21. Waterstreetmusic.com; soulfly.com.
