KATAKLYSM: Two 'Prevail' Tracks On Sale Beginning This Friday

April 30, 2008

Beginning on May 2, KATAKLYSM fans can begin purchasing two exclusive tracks "Taking The World By Storm" and "Breathe To Dominate" that will only be available at the Nuclear Blast Europe Music Shop.

A brand new KATAKLYSM track, "The Chains of Power", from the group's upcoming album "Prevail", has been posted on the group's new and improved MySpace page.

Comments KATAKLYSM vocalist Maurizio Iacono: "The meaning behind the track 'The Chains of Power' is essential. It's a song the band wrote to give gratitude and strength to all the courageous soldiers who fight for our freedom. It doesn't matter if you are for or against certain wars, nor the bullshit politics that are associated with these topics.

"This track is about the people in the world that decide to take a chance with their lives in order to preserve our way of living. While we drink, rock out at concerts and take our daily lives for granted, some soldier is out there in the middle of a warfield dodging bullets and bombs. This commitment and sacrifice has to be acknowledged, it's our tribute to them and our soundtrack to give them courage.

KATAKLYSM held a listening party for "Prevail" on March 17 at The Plush Lounge at the Key Club in Hollywood, California. Among the attendees were Francine Boucher (ECHOES OF ETERNTY),Dino Cazares (DIVINE HERESY, FEAR FACTORY) and Nadja Peulen (COAL CHAMBER).
