Max Cavalera is the DJ for Liberty City Hardcore Radio Station in The Lost and Damned. Although The Lost and Damned and Grand Theft Auto IV are in the same time, Jimmy Gestapo is the DJ for LCHC and plays hardcore punk rock in IV, while Cavalera plays extreme metal in The Lost and Damned's rendition.

Cavalera was the real-life lead singer of the band, Sepultura, who plays the featured thrash metal song "Dead Embryonic Cells" (which is also featured in the trailer for The Lost and Damned), and is currently the frontman of Soulfly and Cavalera Conspiracy. The opening to the song "Blood Fire War Hate", by Soulfly is also played at the begining of the The Lost and Damned's sequential LCHC playlist, as part of the 'Blood Fire War Hate Death Metal Show' introduction.
