DIJTB - New trailer: "Bleeding Gods" about the compilation

The legendary compilation “Death Is Just The Beginning“ is back! But there’s more! A formidable live package featuring three bands who appear on the collection is due to hit the road under the same name. Canadian Death Metallers KATAKLYSM who have re-recorded their classic track “The Awakener“ for the release, will be joined by HYPOCRISY who have offered up a cover version of “They Lie“ (The Exploited). The package is completed by THE SPIRIT who have provided the title track from their NUCLEAR BLAST debut, “Sounds From The Vortex“.

“Death Is Just The Beginning MMXVIII“ will be released on October 19th, 2018.

NUCLEAR BLAST just released a new trailer on YouTube with a snippet of "Beloved By Artemis" from BLEEDING GODS. Check it out

The band states about the compilation:

"Somewhere in the 90's I received the "Death...is just the Beginning' CD and later the VHS and DVD through a trading at school. I discovered a lot of awesome bands! Bands that inspired me a lot to write music and grow as a musician and as a guitar player. I am very happy that the concept has been risen from the dead! Keep discovering bands and keep the metal alive!"

Even more highlights can be expected from this release, besides current songs from the likes of BLEEDING GODS, BRUJERIA, CARCASS, PARADISE LOST and THY ART IS MURDER, “Death Is Just The Beginning“ also has lots of rarities to offer. BENEDICTION, MEMORIAM and POSSESSED will certainly destroy your neck muscles with some special demo versions. A couple of Nuclear Blast’s new signings will also be making an appearance; Dutch Death/Thrashers BLEEDING GODS, Germany's most interesting dark Melodic Death Metallers NAILED TO OBSCURITY as well as US Progressive/Extreme metallers AENIMUS. Furthermore, the superstar quintet INSIDIOUS DISEASE is back for the first time since 2010 after some line-up changes – and they are back stronger than ever before!

Lovers of cover versions can also get excited. IMMOLATION covers “Morbid Visions“ by Sepultura, joined by no one else than Max Cavalera, and DECAPITATED let you hear their interpretation of MESHUGGAH's “Sane“.

There are no excuses - the "Death Is Just The Beginning" series is impossible to beat. MMXVIII contains some high-class acts and fantastic newcomers, hoping to win over even more fans to Nuclear Blast’s stylistically varied range. Don't miss it, there is a lot to discover!
