HATEBREED Taps VINNIE PAUL For Live CD

May 21, 2008

Hardcore/metal heroes HATEBREED have tapped legendary drummer Vinnie Paul (PANTERA, HELLYEAH, DAMAGEPLAN) to produce, document and record the band's May 27, 2008 concert in Dallas, Texas at the Palladium Ballroom. The resultant recording will be released as HATEBREED's live album, due before the end of the year.

HATEBREED frontman Jamey Jasta comments: "We can't even begin to explain how excited we are to be recording our live album with Vinnie Paul! It's a great honor and privilege to be working with him on this. Vinnie knows his shit and doesn't fuck around! He's the man to get us the massive live tones we need to make this a special release. This is not just a live CD, this is live in TEXAS, where everything is bigger and badder! We're also going to be shooting some video footage for a short bonus DVD that will be like a mini-movie about the who, the what, the how and the why behind this whole project, so stay tuned and we'll see you at the show! BE READY TO LOSE YOUR MIND AND YOUR VOICE!"

Vinnie Paul adds: "I am extremely excited to be producing, recording and documenting HATEBREED for their LIVE CD from Dallas, Texas!!! After touring with them and being personal friends with them for years, I know first-hand what a brutal and energetic band they are and how die-hard their fans are. I plan on capturing that energy and brutality live and then some! I encourage all the Dallas metalheads to be a part of metal history and be at the HATEBREED/TYPE O show May 27th....HELLYEAH!!!"

HATEBREED recently signed a "multi-tiered, worldwide deal with KOCH Records. As part of the new deal, KOCH Records will release a series of highly anticipated future projects from the kings of hardcore metal.

The first project under the new deal will be HATEBREED's first-ever live DVD. The main DVD concert shoot took place at Harpo's in Detroit on Saturday, March 29, 2008 in front of a sold-out crowd. Directed by Kevin Custer, the yet-to-be titled DVD will also feature a collection of recent live shows from various tour stops in Germany, Philadelphia, New York City and New Haven, CT.

The new DVD will see its release in late summer/early fall. A sneak peek is available below.
