Recently unearthed from the Pinkpop Festival archives, newly released pro-shot footage captures Soulfly in their raw, early form during a May 23rd, 1999 set. The performance took place during the height of their self-titled debut album cycle—an era defined by tribal grooves, aggressive riffing, and Max Cavalera’s post-Sepultura exploration of the then-exploding nü-metal sound.
The footage captures the band in full force at the Dutch festival, showcasing their signature blend of groove metal, world music elements, and visceral intensity. At the time, their 1998 self-titled debut had already gone gold, firmly planting Soulfly among the heavy hitters of late ‘90s metal.
Watch the full performance below and experience a pivotal chapter of nü-metal history.
