Symphonic metal band Catalyst Crime has released a new single, "Acquired Immunity", now available on all digital platforms via Massacre Records.

The song marks a harder and more aggressive direction for the band, building upon their cinematic sound.

The track is driven by guitarist Kaelen Sarakinis and keyboardist Jonah Weingarten's complementary compositional forces.

The song features melodic death metal-influenced verses, cinematic orchestration, and high vocal lines.

A guest guitar solo by Marek Šmerda adds to the epic feel of the track.

Frontwoman Zoe Marie Federoff describes "Acquired Immunity" as a turning point for Catalyst Crime's sound, embracing their cinematic streak while venturing into greater complexity.

Catalyst Crime is an international cinematic symphonic metal band founded in 2017 by Xandria drummer Gerit Lamm and American vocalist Zoe Marie Federoff.

They later joined with orchestral composer Jonah Weingarten, guitarists Chena Roxx and Kaelen Sarakinis, and bassist Matt Federoff to form a fully formed band.

Their self-titled debut album was released in October 2021 to positive reception, leading them to return to Mastersound Studios in Stuttgart, Germany to record their second album in the fall of 2023.
