Kataklysm are readying a new DVD entitled “The Iron Will: 20 Years Determined” for a release early next year through Nuclear Blast. The effort will feature a documentary directed and produced by Tommy Jones (Lamb Of God, Soilwork) which chronicles the band from their inception in 1991 to present day. Interviews with the bands first frontman Sylvain Houde will grace the effort, as will the bands upcoming “Summer Breeze Open Air” performance in Germany. A new single dubbed “The Iron Will” will be recorded this summer as well with a music video for it to follow.
Speaking on the release, band frontman Maurizio Iacono offered the following:
“This is something that we are doing first for ourselves to look back at the long and hard road traveled and to be grateful that twenty years later, this band is stronger than ever and still means something in the music world. It’s an accomplishment to exist this long and this DVD is dedicated to our fans who solely kept us alive in this destructive and turbulent scene. I decided to scrap my book idea (it was taking way too long and time is of the essence) and instead tell our story on THE IRON WILL in detail to get things off my chest once and for all. We’ve been the underdogs for so long and looking back, this is a good a place to be.”
