With such acclaim and the notoriety as an infectiously appealing live-band, Bolt Thrower stormed ahead into 2005 with a new found popularity generated by Earache's reissue of 1989s Realm of Chaos'" which was re-mastered and included new artwork. Bolt Thrower were now firmly established within the world of heavy metal, with a unique and defining image endorsed by their electric live performances, which drove the band into 2006, headlining their own shows alongside Malevolent Creation and Nightrage.
