Marc Rizzo

The Profile

American guitarist known for his work with Soulfly, Ill Niño, and Cavalera Conspiracy, and for solo albums that fuse flamenco and metal, including Colossal Myopia and The Ultimate Devotion.

Verified: American guitarist; former Ill Niño guitarist; longtime Soulfly collaborator; member of Cavalera Conspiracy; solo work noted for flamenco/Latin elements within metal.

Reviewers hail Rizzo’s debut Colossal Myopia for its virtuosity and Latin/flamenco-metal fusion. The Ultimate Devotion is praised as strong, if a notch below the debut. Standout tracks and stylistic range (thrash, prog, jazz, acoustic) are recurring themes. Fans of six-strings and Latin-tinged metal will find plenty to love.
