New KATAKLYSM Album To Feature Guest Appearances By CANNIBAL CORPSE, OVERKILL Members

February 14, 2008

Vocalist Maurizio Iacono of the Canadian death metallers KATAKLYSM has issued the following update:

"KATAKLYSM just recently finished mixing their new album ('Prevail') at AudioHammer Studios in Orlando, Florida with producer Jason Suecof. The album is going through a mastering process as we speak and should be wrapped up by the end of the week. In other words, fully complete and ready to kill! The anticipated album will also feature guest solo appearances by Pat O'Brien (CANNIBAL CORPSE),Dave Linsk (OVERKILL) and producer and guitar shredder Jason Suecof himself! The band promises a monstrous album that will pummel you from start to finish. The album artwork and track list will be unleashed next Monday on the bands MySpace page and website. Stay tuned!"

"Prevail" is scheduled for release via Nuclear Blast Records on May 23 (Europe) and May 27 (North America).

KATAKLYSM recently decided to "immortalize" the character that was featured on the cover of their most recent album, "In the Arms of Devastation", and have him re-appear as the main character — dubbed "The Heartbeast" — on "Prevail".

Commented vocalist Maurizio Iacono: "We had so [much] killer feedback on the artwork but especially on the character that we decided to keep him as the band's fifth band member... kinda like IRON MAIDEN did with 'Eddie.' We have the perfect concept for the next album art... it will be bad-ass!"
