27 track double CD package from hugely successful hardcore ‘crossover’ act Hatebreed, featuring two classic albums from the earlier part of their discography.
CD 1 features their 2003 studio album ‘The Rise Of Brutality’, featuring breakout tracks ‘Live For This’ and ‘This Is Now’, CD 2 features the internationally successful 2006 studio effort ‘Supremacy’. The track ‘Live For This’, from ‘The Rise Of Brutality’ album, was nominated for a Grammy in 2004.
Featuring exclusive liner notes respected journalist Mark Freebase, with contributions from hardcore historian Ian Glasper, Danny Marianino from North Side Kings and Christian Air from German hardcore act Ryker’s.
Formed in Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1994, Hatebreed developed a reputation for uncompromising hardcore combined with a lyrical positivity that found a wide audience.
Defying genre barriers, Hatebreed toured with metal acts like Slayer, Entombed and Deftones, bringing them to a new audience and becoming in the process one of the few bands to successfully straddle the hardcore / metal divide.
Hatebreed frontman Jamey Jasta was the presenter of MTV Headbanger’s Ball from 2003 to 2007. The band continue to record and tour successfully to this day.
Metal Hammer sums up the Hatebreed approach as follows: “They’ve made a name for themselves through their energetic, hard-hitting live shows, but chip away at their furious metalcore exterior and you’ll find frontman Jamey Jasta penning disarming lyrics that push positivity, inner-strength and unapologetic self-belief.”
