A decade in the making,
10 years born through anger,
>From fantasy to reality and into the mind,
Prospered and fallen,
We've open doors that seem forever closed,
Northern Hyperblast legions worldwide [fans of Kataklysm's unique death
metal]
Loyal to the sounds of devastation
We've walked through "THE MYSTICAL GATE",
Into the magic of "SORCERY",
We've entered the "TEMPLE OF KNOWLEDGE",
Just to fall "VICTIM OF THIS FALLEN WORLD".....
Reborn through "THE PROPHECY"
Prepare for this "EPIC" stand!

The fire burns in our heart
There's no fear for the originators
Of the light speed blast - Underground bound!

What we've endured...The ups, the downs

Sing with the song of Kataklysm, What We Endure lyrics!

What we've endured...and all the shit that's in between
What we endured...The criticism*
What we've endured...And no recognition
What we endured...for being extreme*

Do you understand...Do you?..
Do you understand who we are?

WHAT WE ENDURED
...The ups, the down
...and all the shit that's in between
...The criticism*
...And no recognition
...for being extreme*

But we would do it all over again,
Because you're the reason we exist!

[*too extreme/chaotic for the times in the early 90's when we started]

Kataklysm was born in Canada, spring 1991. A year after they got together they released a demo called "Death Gate Cycle of Reincarnation ". The demo got them worldwide attention and a record deal with german label, Nuclear Blast. After getting signed, they re-released the demo along with a bonus track. The band started rehearsing and soon they started the recording for their debut full-length, "Sorcery". It was released in 1995. The album really got a positive response and they were seen as one of the bigger bands in the Death Metal scene. A year later in 1996, they released another album, "Temple of Knowledge ". It gained them even more attention and the band also made a video for the track "The Awakener". The band did a lot of tours and also released a third album in 1998 entitled "Victims of This Fallen World". The band didn't stop their rage, and released a fourth album, "The Prophecy (Stigmata of the Immaculate)", in 2000 and a fifth in 2001, "Epic :The Poetry of War", which was the bands most melodic record.
