Katatonia’s 'The Fall Of Hearts' Gets a Stunning Tenth Anniversary Reissue

Katatonia, the architects of melancholic metal, are back in the spotlight as they unveil a limited tenth anniversary edition of their monumental album, The Fall Of Hearts. Released in 2016, this record not only conquered the charts—debuting at #1 on the USA Heatseekers and #5 on the Hard Rock charts—but also solidified Katatonia’s place in the pantheon of modern heavy music. The band's relentless touring since the 2012 release of Dead End Kings has paid off, as they expanded their empire across the globe.

With The Fall Of Hearts, Katatonia pushed their sound into uncharted territories, seamlessly blending progressive elements with their signature dark melodies.
