Many a metalhead and hardcore kid has had to wait 3 years for this, but hardcore legends Hatebreed will release their 7th studio album, The Concrete Confessional, on May 13th 2016 via Nuclear Blast.
From the upcoming album, Hatebreed have treated fans to a lyric video for the track A.D. Having not really paid much attention to the band since The Rise Of Brutality, the track is actually better than I thought it might be.
Lyrically, it's basically the same old thing; "Boo! My country and it's government sucks." Musically, it's a mixture of typical their typical style and Slayer worship, as the first half of the song zips along in thrash-like fashion and then finishes with the iconic Hatebreed fist bump-inducing groove. Put together, it's not the most cringeworthy thing I've ever heard and is not that disappointing, as far as Hatebreed goes.
It's definitely worth checking this out if you have ever liked the band or considered yourself a fan of hardcore and/or metalcore. I'm personally liking the thrash element and hoping there's more of that on the rest of the album.
