HATE Announce New Drummer
February 9, 2006Polish death metallers HATE have announced the addition of drummer Hexen to the group's ranks after parting ways with Hellrizer in December 2005. The reason for the change was Hellrizer's involvement in his own project and his "weakening dedication to HATE's" activities, according to a press release.
Commented HATE vocalist/guitarist Adam The First Sinner: "This is the end of problems we had had with Hellrizer for quite a long time. It started just after finishing 'Anaclasis' album when his priorities changed completely in favor of his new project. After several fruitless talks with the guy, we decided to give chance another drummer — Hexen — a young, educated musician completely devoted to extreme metal. Only a few rehearsals with Hexen convinced me that the change would be for much better. He mastered all 'Anaclasis' album in just two weeks to a degree Hellrizer never did. I must say he's the best drummer I've ever had in the lineup and that means we will be able to make significant progress with next material. Now I'm looking forward to the concerts we're playing very soon."
HATE's current lineup is:
Adam The First Sinner - guitar, vocals
Hellbeast – guitar
Cyprian – bass
Hexen – drums
In other news, HATE have cancelled their previously announced participation in the KRISIUN headlining tour. The band hope to make another tour announcement during the coming months.
Commented Adam The First Sinner: "We tried our best to be on the tour with KRISIUN but it just didn't work for us from the beginning. The booking agency seems to be organizing it at the last moment and they just didn't take care of proper transport for supporting bands; moreover they changed the conditions at the last moment quite a bit and now they're just unacceptable. To raise your spirits I can tell you that we're working on some other tour options at the moment. We want to play a REAL tour in Europe this year, with some major band as a headliner. We'll keep you posted as soon as the deal is done. IN DARKNESS WE SHALL BURN!!!"
