KATAKLYSM's latest album Goliath was released via Nuclear Blast Records on August 11th. The band's 15th studio album was globally lauded by fans and critics, scoring outstanding results in numerous soundchecks and international charts, including #5 in the US-American Current Hard Music Album Charts, #11 in the German Album Charts and #29 in the Swiss Album Charts. Goliath was recorded at JFD Studios in Dallas, TX and Studio City, CA as well as The Cabin in Orlando, FL by J-F Dagenais, who also produced and engineered the album. For the mixing and mastering, the band returned to Chris Clancy with assistance from Colin Richardson. The cover artwork required an image that captured the iconic battle of David versus Goliath theme that is echoed throughout the album while matching the power of the music. The band enlisted renowned Berlin metal illustrator Eliran Kantor (TESTAMENT, FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE) to create the artwork which took the KATAKLYSM look and gave it a macabre filter that compliments the brooding sense of uneasiness that was felt during the writing and recording of the album.
