Aus Metz stammen die französischen Technical-Death-Metaller CATALYST, die 2017 ihre erste MCD veröffentlichten und 2019 mit "The Great Purpose Of The Lord" nachlegten. Hinter der Band verstecken sich vier Musiker, die bislang in der Szene noch nicht groß in Erscheinung getreten sind, aber einiges an Talent mitbringen und versuchen, einen Old-School-Zugang zum Todesblei mit einem modernen und technischeren Anspruch zu verknüpfen.

Mit der Ankündigung, dass noch diesen Herbst das Zweitwerk folgen soll, haben die Jungs gleichzeitig auch bekannt gegeben, dass sie einen Vertrag mit dem niederländischen Label Non Serviam Records abgeschlossen haben. CATALYST kommentieren:

"We are proud to announce that our sophomore album will be released by the highly qualitative Dutch record label Non Serviam Records! Set of years of hard work, it is with immense pleasure that we will work in synergy with this label. Non Serviam Records is a house which always focuses on quality, with only a few releases per year, fully concentrating on each effort they put out. Therefore, we know that signing with them will perfectly match our expectations for this second opus, with a tailor-made experience for the band. The whole CATALYST crew is thrilled to begin this new adventure with Non Serviam Records as we are convinced that the work provided by its runner Ricardo Gelok perfectly fits our artistic vision. We can’t wait to share with you this epic and extreme journey throughout our new songs."

Ricardo Gelok von Non Serviam Records ergänzt:

"I was pleasantly surprised when I heard the first notes of the new CATALYST promo. I knew right away that this was a band I would like to sign with the label. Technical Death Metal, which is nevertheless very accessible and also pleasant to listen to."
