Episode 31: Incite's Richie Cavalera

On this episode of the Distorted Dialogue podcast, we sit down with Richie Cavalera, founding member and frontman of the groove and thrash metal band Incite. Incite takes two of my favorite genres of metal, Groove and Thrash, cuts off the fat and jams into your ears with force. A unique twist on both, Incite had be banging my head and throwing horns in the air, as I listened to their latest singles, Just A Rat, No Mercy No Forgiveness, and my favorite so far, Dolores. We discuss a ton of topics, to include the three new singles, the latest album, Savage New Times, August 15, 2025, and I can't wait. Following up the successes of their 2022 album, Wake Up Dead, Incite use different tempos, different instruments and a different approach to their writing and growth.We also discussed their appearances on the Summer Slaughter Tour, hosted by Hatebreed's Jamey Jasta, being on Reigning Phoenix Records and also being the son of the legendary Gloria Cavalera, one of the First Ladies of thrash, who kicked ass and took names all over the globe! I really enjoyed this chat, but honestly, not as much as I enjoyed their music. You guys know riffs are my favorite thing!!! All jokes aside, Richie was an awesome guest, and I hope there is more coming from their camp soon, and make sure you snag a copy of their latest album, Savage New Times. The title says it all, and by the sounds of the content, these will be some truly savage moments coming up with Incite! Special thanks to Richie Cavalera, for taking time out of his busy as schedule to talk to me, and thank to the crew at C Squared music for setting this up.
