Hatebreed have released their ninth studio album, Fatal Paradox, out now via BLKIIBLK, alongside a video for “Decisions Become Destinies”.
The track opens with a heavy bassline before building into the band’s signature hardcore attack and breakdowns. The band describe it as one of the most personal songs on the record and a statement of where Hatebreed stand as they enter their next chapter.
The eleven-track album combines hardcore and thrash influences, with longtime collaborator Zeuss involved and John Tardy appearing on “Sacrifice Season”. It follows 2020’s Weight of the False Self.
