Montr\u00e9al, Qu\u00e9bec, Canada-based death metal group Kataklysm have re-signed with Nuclear Blast Records, revealing this development on November 6th, 2017.<\/p>\n

Kataklysm frontman Maurizio Iacono commented: \u201cIt\u2019s hard to believe so many years have passed. It all feels like yesterday we released our first album, Sorcery<\/em> (1995). Today, we stand here as a humbled band with lots to be thankful for, one of those deserving of our gratitude is our label Nuclear Blast and the people who work there. They have always stood behind Kataklysm from the day they discovered us as teenagers. Fast forward 25 years to their current staff, who are just discovering us. We now re-sign with our home label for the fifth time and stand on top of our game together.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no better way to celebrate this moment but by releasing a new album. We have secretly been preparing and working throughout the entire year \u2014 similar to the way we wrote our classics In The Arms Of Devastation<\/em> (2006), Shadows & Dust<\/em> (2002) and Serenity In Fire<\/em> (2004) \u2014 using the best technology available: a rehearsal room, garages and our basements. Just like we did when we first started, four guys with a passion for metal, instruments and no outside world to influence us \u2014 only now with way more experience. We believe we created one of our strongest and most honest album to date. You will be the judge in 2018 like it should be. Our words don\u2019t matter but know this, we are coming out guns blazing in 2018!\u201d<\/p>\n

Nuclear Blast owner Markus Staiger stated: \u201cHonoured that my Canadian hyper-blasters have re-signed with us after 25 years and for the fifth time! It is overwhelming to have such a long and healthy relationship with a band that has remained in top form and is in its best shape ever! So let\u2019s go for the next 25 years. Thanks my friends!\u201d<\/p>\n

Nuclear Blast America\u2019s general manager Gerardo Martinez shared: \u201cI first met Maurizio and the boys back in 1995 when they were on their first North American tour with Incantation. I had heard the band on the 5 Years Of Nuclear Blast<\/em> compilation 25 years ago… little did I know that they were going to be one of the longest standing bands at the label. Here we are, it\u2019s been 15 years working with them and proud to have the band still flying the death metal flag. Here\u2019s to at least 15 years more!\u201d<\/p>\n

Kataklysm\u2019s line-up is as follows;<\/p>\n

Maurizio Iacono (vocals)
\nJean-Fran\u00e7ois Dagenais (guitars)
\nStephane Barbe (bass)
\nOli Beaudoin (drums) <\/p>\n

Thirteeth full-length studio album Meditations<\/em> is slated for April 2018 issue<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Twelfth studio record Of Ghosts And Gods<\/em> was released<\/a> in July 2015 via Nuclear Blast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
