About
For almost 3 decades, death metal giants KATAKLYSM have delivered unapologetic waves of powerful sound across the entire globe. On August 11th, the band’s 15th full-length studio album, Goliath, will be unleashed unto the masses via Nuclear Blast Records.
Goliath, staying true to its name, is an aggressive and mean album that was a product of its own unique obstacles.
"There’s a lot of anger but also a lot of darkness in this record, it reflects the current mood of the world” comments Maurizio Iacono. “GOLIATH is an album that searches deep into questioning things that are happening on a global scale and inside society itself, are you ok with everything you see?”
Maurizio goes on to say, “This record has this mean, aggressive feeling about it. It’s also about fighting back, Standing up even if it seems at times impossible to do so…a Modern day David vs Goliath : fighting back for what is right for yourself and the people you love.”
Not many bands have achieved what KATAKLYSM has in the span of their long and rigorous career, but what truly makes them stand them apart from the masses is seeing the world through truthful eyes, and creating the perfect musical landscape to describe it. With this new album, KATAKLYSM gives an innocent but aggressive album in a time of such uncertainty. Goliath is the band’s response to the kind of media that was being force-fed from both sides and coming up with their voice and identity that has made them the figures of Death Metal.
