About Me

Let's say REVOLVER and ALTERNATIVE PRESS Magazines called the record you were making one of their Most Anticipated of 2006 as you were in the midst of switching labels. Perhaps you also had a world tour mapped out before and after recording, including a run on the 2006 Ozzfest main stage, with just enough time built in to fly your vocalist home to tape episodes of the TV show he hosts - MTV2’s HEADBANGERS BALL. Throughout all this, you ran your various business ventures (an indie record label, clothing company, tattoo shop, managing real estate investments and much more) from cell phones wherever you were and called in news updates to various websites that cover your band and the scene to which you have dedicated a great portion of your life. With all this, you might very well be burnt out after 10 years in the spotlight. Jamey Jasta, Sean Martin, Chris Beattie and Matt Byrne – also known as HATEBREED with brand new member Frank Novinec – do it all, with a singular focus and hard-earned credibility only dreamt of by many of their contemporaries. “I wanted to get in the right head space, to get back to square one, and to why I started expressing myself through music in the first place,” says frontman Jamey Jasta about Supremacy, his band's fourth full-length and Roadrunner Records debut. “Once [bassist] Chris [Beattie] and [guitarist] Sean [Martin] started bringing ideas to the table, and I started arranging songs and reading through the lyrics I had compiled, I got excited again. I wanted to feed off that and the feelings that I had on our first record. I wanted to tap into those good feelings and adrenaline and to express and communicate them over the most intense album we've ever made.” Thanks to the visceral, fierce music contained on Supremacy, it appears that the members of HATEBREED, who were nominated for a Grammy in 2005, have gotten their ‘inspiration’ back. On Supremacy, HATEBREED, who've toured with everyone from Slayer to new labelmates Slipknot, deftly illustrate all the things that have made them one of the underground heavy metal scene's most beloved and most important bands of the past decade. It also presents a new and improved HATEBREED, who took some time, celebrated their ten-year anniversary with a sold-out tour, reconnected with their fans, navigated some personal issues, and then recorded an album that is as hulking as it is tight, as tough as it positive. This Connecticut quintet – rounded out by drummer Matt Byrne and new second guitarist Frank Novinec - is ready to show the world why its throne atop the heavy metal kingdom with Supremacy is firmly intact. While a ‘positive’ HATEBREED might seem like a contradiction in terms, since they play aggressive music that sets off carnage-producing moshpits, Jasta pens lyrics that speak of hope, rising above, and believing in yourself. It is precisely those qualities that will allow Supremacy to connect with the kids on a profound level.
