HATEBREED have announced that they have inked a deal to not just one but two labels.
In Europe, the band’s follow-up to their 2009 self-titled album will be handled byย Nuclear Blast Records, whileย North America will be handled byย Razor & Tie. The new record is supposed to be released in January of next year.
Commented HATEBREEDย singerย Jamey Jasta:
We’re really excited to be working with such great people at bothย Razor & Tieย andย Nuclear Blast. We’ve made an awesome album and we’re chomping at the bit to get it out and hit the road. Global domination begins now.
Pete Giberga, VP of A&R, andย John Franck, SVP of Marketing forย Razor & Tie, also comments:
Hatebreed’s anthems coupled with their do-or-die work ethic continues to make them a dominant force in hardcore and metal today. Their inclusionary message and deep relationship with their fan-base also makes them a band that is built for these times. With the group playing some of the best shows of its career, their renewed sense of purpose has never sounded more steadfast and resolute than it does on this forthcoming new record.
And last but not least, a comment fromย Nuclear Blastย A&R representativeย Jaap Wagemaker:
In the past, we had seenย Hatebreedย play several times live when they were headlining indoor hardcore festivals or when they played one of the many shows atย Graspopย in Belgium. The band that defined metal/hardcore with their releases “Perseverance”ย and “The Rise of Brutality”ย will be releasing another milestone in their career by the beginning of 2013!!ย
After seeing Hatebreedย turning this year’sย Hellfestย upside down in front of 30,000 hardcore and metal fans and doing the same a couple of months later atย Bloodstockย in the U.K., it became very clear thatย Hatebreedย andย Nuclear Blastย would be the perfect match. Something that became even stronger after we had the chance to listen to a couple of new songs!
We are very proud to welcomeย Hatebreedย to the ever-growingย Nuclearfamily!! In 2013 their new album will be out and I can tell you that the fans who have been waiting for this for a couple of years now won’t be disappointed!!ย Hatebreedย is back, stronger than ever!!
