Kataklysm will release their fourteenth studio album, Unconquered on September 25th through Nuclear Blast. The band released the first single, “The Killshot” which you can find below. The band had Scott Hansen direct the video and they offered the following comments on it:
“‘The Killshot‘ is very Machiavellian at its base meaning. The song deals with revenge and planning it out, I wrote the song in an open interpretation because everyone has their own story that they can attach to it. In general, the album deals with pain or setbacks, overcoming them and fighting back especially in today’s situation, the timing is on point.
In February, we flew to Atlanta, Georgia and worked with director Scott Hansen. We saw some of his creations and wanted to try his style. The experience was awesome and we won’t forget it anytime soon. Everything went great but it was there, sitting at the airport that we first started seeing on all the screens that Covid-19 was about to shutdown the country.”
The album was tracked with their guitarist JF Dagenais handling the productions at JFD Studio in Dallas, TX. Colin Richardson and Chris Clancy handled the mixing. You can pre-order Unconquered now at this location.
