YOU CAN LISTEN TO THE NEW KATAKLYSM ALBUM RIGHT NOW

Why wait for my (or any other critic’s) review of Kataklysm’s Prevail? There’s only so many synonyms for “awesome” and “brutal” I can use, and besides, right now the band is streaming the entire album on their MySpace page. Which means you can write your own review!

Lettin’ fans hear the whole album prior to its release is just good promotin’ skills, but it takes some balls, too; the album doesn’t hit stores/iTunes/whatever ’til May 27 (here in the US; Europe gets it on May 23). If it sucked, that would give everyone a week and a half to spread the bad buzz. But, duh-hickey, it doesn’t suck, and the band obviously knows that, so, voila, they’re letting you listen to it early.

So check it out already. “Blood in Heaven” is my favorite song on the disc thus far; how about all’a y’all?
