Catalyst Crime To Release New Album In October

Cinematic symphonic metal collective Catalyst Crime open a powerful new chapter with the release of their new single "Acquired Immunity," out now on all digital platforms via Massacre Records. At the same time, the band proudly announce that their upcoming full-length album will be released on October 2, 2026.

Following the deeply personal and emotionally charged first single "Cursebreaker," which paid tribute to a real-life resistance heroine behind the Iron Curtain, “Acquired Immunity” reveals a heavier, more aggressive and genre-bending side of Catalyst Crime's evolving sound.

Driven by the complementary compositional forces of guitarist Kaelen Sarakinis and keyboardist Jonah Weingarten, "Acquired Immunity" stands as one of the band’s most intense and hard-hitting tracks to date.

Blistering melodeath-infused verses collide with cinematic orchestration and soaring vocal lines, while the scorching guest guitar solo by Marek “Ashok” Šmerda (ex-Cradle of Filth, ex-Root) elevates the track into epic territory.

Frontwoman Zoe Marie Federoff describes the song as a turning point for the band’s sound - a bold step into deeper complexity while fully embracing their identity as cinematic metal.
