While Cavalera and Newport formed the core of the project, they invited a legendary roster of underground musicians to contribute to the recording sessions: (Sepultura) – Drums Andreas Kisser (Sepultura) – Lead Guitar Dino Cazares (Fear Factory) – Rhythm Guitar Richie Cavalera – Co-vocals on choose tracks Lyrical Themes: Pure Anti-Establishment Misanthropy
Following the release of Point Blank , Nailbomb was never meant to be a sustained venture. Max Cavalera returned to Sepultura to record the landmark Roots (1996) before departing to form Soulfly, while Alex Newport transitioned into a highly sought-after record producer, working with bands like At the Drive-In, The Locust, and Melvins.
Listening to Point Blank in this specific format allows the listener to hear the separation between Alex Newport's gritty industrial programming and Max Cavalera's down-tuned guitar tracks with absolute clarity. Legacy and Impact
Nailbomb was a shooting star. True to their word, Cavalera and Newport intended the project to be a one-time affair. They performed only one official live show—a legendary set at the 1995 Dynamo Open Air Festival in the Netherlands, which was recorded and released as the live album Proud to Commit Commercial Suicide . Shortly thereafter, Nailbomb was officially disbanded.
By 1994, Max Cavalera was already metal royalty. Sepultura had just released Chaos A.D. in 1993, an album that integrated tribal rhythms and hardcore punk into their signature thrash sound. Alex Newport, meanwhile, was leading Fudge Tunnel, a UK band known for its sludgy, noise-rock intensity.
