He is the younger brother of Max Cavalera. He played in bands besides Sepultura as well, including Nailbomb, Strife, and Titas.

Igor started playing drums at a very early age. When Sepultura was formed, Igor was the youngest member at the age of 13. Sepultura was a pretty big success at an early start for Igor. In April 21, 1984, Igor played, for the first time, in on a real drum kit, which was borrowed from Helinho, from Overdose, another band that would play in that night.
