De Canadese metalformatie Kataklysm komt op 25 september met het veertiende studio-album Unconquered. Het werd geproduceerd door gitarist JF Dagenais en gemixt door Colin Richardson met hulp van technicus Chris Clancy. Aan de hoes van de door Nuclear Blast uit te brengen plaat valt op dat "the heart beast" weer is teruggekeerd. Unconquered verschijnt in de volgende formaten: cd jewelcase, vinyl (vier kleuren) en cd + patch bundle. Beluister hier de eerste single The Killshot en bekijk de door Scott Hansen (Digital Thunderdome Studios) geregisseerde beelden.

Kataklysm over de nieuwe single: "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 Hanson. 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."
