Katagory V are a progressive
power metal band from Salt Lake City, Utah. Formed in early 1999, they have
released five studio albums to date: "Present Day" (2001), followed
by "A New Breed Of Rebellion" (2004), "The Rising Anger"
(2006), "Hymns Of Dissension" (2007), and finally "Resurrect The
Insurgence" (2015). The band has now signed a deal with High Roller
Records, the first release of which is their brand-new album, "Awaken A
New Age Of Chaos." The record was recorded by Dustin Mitchell (bass),
Curtis Morrell (guitar), and Matt Suiter (drums), all part of the original
lineup, plus vocalist Albert Rybka and new addition Dan Coxey on second guitar.
The album was recorded at Streamline Studio in Salt Lake City and produced by
the band themselves. Alan Douches (Fates Warning, Cannibal Corpse) was
responsible for the mastering. With riff monsters like "Empire Of
Ignorance" and "Blood Siphon" and melodic pieces like
"Absolute Divide" and "Through Fate's Eyes," "Awaken A
New Age Of Chaos" emerges as a masterpiece of modern progressive power
metal. In the past, Katagory V have been compared to Fates Warning,
Queensryche, Hades, Sanctuary, and Lethal. According to bassist and founding
member Dustin Mitchell, this is quite apt:
"The bands mentioned have
undoubtedly influenced us. But also a lot of speed, thrash, and doom bands from
the late 80s and early 90s. Plus old-school thrash metal bands – Realm, Death
Angel, Helstar, Flotsam & Jetsam, and Atrophy – and also harder melodic
hard rock bands, especially from Germany, like Bonfire and Jaded Heart."
That should give anyone unfamiliar with Katagory V a good idea of what the band
sounds like. All in all, the new album »Awaken A New Age Of Chaos« is
characterized by a surprisingly dark undertone: "Oh yes, I wholeheartedly
agree," confirms Dustin Mitchell. "This record is much darker and
angrier than anything we've done in the past, with the possible exception of
our second album. We've suffered some setbacks throughout our career, which is
why the band has been on ice for the past ten years. So it's only natural that
the anger from these experiences has found its way into our new music."
