Hatebreed drummer Matt Byrne describes the band’s upcoming album as “way thrashier” and “way more metal, thrashy, fast, SLAYER-esque.”
The new material is the heaviest stuff Hatebreed has written to date, with a lot of groove and aggression.
The band is gearing up for a new era with lineup changes and health challenges, promising new music and a revamped live show in 2026.
The band’s latest single, “Make The Demons Obey,” is a preview of the upcoming album, showcasing a fast, heavy, and aggressive sound that embodies Hatebreed’s signature style.
Their guitarist Wayne Lozinak returned to the stage after undergoing surgery for a benign brain tumor, with the band continuing its tours with temporary lineup adjustments.
