Background

Tomas Haake stated, "As always, we try to take our music in a slightly different direction with each album and with Koloss, we feel that we really nailed what we were going for. Organic brutality, viscera and groove all crammed into a 54-minute metalicious treat, best avoided by the faint of heart!!"[7]

Release

The album was released on March 23, 2012 in Germany, March 26 in the rest of Europe, and March 27 in North America. It will be released as a digipack, a limited edition "Magic Cube" (including the digipack and an exclusive DVD, only available through Nuclear Blast mail-order), and a double-LP pressed on brown vinyl.[8]
