🐍 KATAKLYSM — "As I Slither" (Live @ Bloodstock 2025)

Official live capture of Kataklysm performing “As I Slither” on the Sophie Lancaster Stage at Bloodstock Open Air 2025—filmed August 8, 2025 at Catton Park, Derbyshire, England. Pulled straight from their headline set, this cut spotlights one song so you can re-experience the moment at full, unbroken intensity.

What you’ll see & hear
“As I Slither” hits with serrated, muscular riffing, precision hyperblast drums, and Maurizio Iacono’s unmistakable, commanding roar. The mix keeps the live impact intact—tight guitars, present bass, and crowd energy swelling into the hooks—so it feels like you’re pressed up against the barrier. Expect whiplash switches, headbang-primed grooves, and a closing crush that detonates.

Why this performance matters
Kataklysm are lifers in extremity, and this track shows how they fuse relentlessness with memorable hooks. The Bloodstock crowd fires back on every breakdown and chant, highlighting what makes this festival special: a community that turns heavy music into shared catharsis. Whether you were in the pit or watching from home, this video delivers the adrenaline, atmosphere, and connection that define BOA.

About Kataklysm
Formed in 1991 in Montreal, Canada, Kataklysm helped shape northern hyperblast death metal—balancing speed, groove, and melody. Their catalog spans fan favorites like Serenity in Fire, Of Ghosts and Gods, and Unconquered, with a reputation for road-tested songs that crush live. Decades in, their stage presence is still razor-sharp—this Bloodstock take on “As I Slither” is proof.
