Outside of crafting their impending ninth studio album “Fatal Paradox“, veteran metalcore band Hatebreed also decided to revisit their second EP, 1996’s “Under The Knife“, in the studio for a full-fledged re-recording. rumblings about those sessions started to emerge online back in February of this year, when it was revealed that former Hatebreed guitarist Larry Dwyer Jr. also took part.
In a newly published interview with Kerrang!, Hatebreed vocalist Jamey Jasta confirmed that EP has been given a new lease on life, while also revealing that he hopes to further shed light on the band’s early years with a potential documentary. He told that publication of this upcoming re-recording:
“We’ve actually re-recorded ‘Under The Knife‘. We’ll probably figure out a release where maybe we include a documentary. I just went through storage rooms full of stuff and found a flyer for a show that was Fear, Murphy’s Law, Hatebreed, 25 Ta Life and One 4 One. Man, I would remember if we had opened for Fear! Wayne [Lozinak, Hatebreed guitarist] had to remind me, ‘No, Fear cancelled but we still played, it was at The Pipeline in New Jersey!’ There’s a lot of those stories and flyers where the memories are a blur and the players are gone. It would be nice to preserve some of it.”
While fans appear to have some time on their hands before that revisited version of “Under The Knife” sees the light of day, “Fatal Paradox” is mere days away, having been scheduled to be release this coming Friday, November 06th.
