Traduza\\ SOULFLY Confirms Bassist's Departure, Recruits CAVALERA CONSPIRACY's CHOW For Upcoming Tours

SOULFLY has released a statement confirming the departure of bassist Bobby Burns (as BLABBERMOUTH.NET first reported last night). According to the band, "The split was completely amicable and there was no animosity on either side."

Johny Chow (pictured below), who has played with SOULFLY's Max Cavalera (guitar, vocals) and Marc Rizzo (guitar) in CAVALERA CONSPIRACY and is a member of FIREBALL MINISTRY, will be loaning his skills to upcoming SOULFLY tours for the immediate future until the position is filled. Fans will be able to check out this "rare" lineup at the U.K. installment of the Sonisphere festival and the Wacken Open Air event in Germany in August.
