HATESPHERE Announces New Bassist

May 27, 2011

Danish thrashers HATESPHERE have announced the addition of bassist Jimmy Nedergaard (GOB SQUAD) to the group's ranks.

Commented Nedergaard: "I've been a fan of HATESPHERE for a long time, so, of course, I had to audition. Both their music and the energy they put in their work appeals to me, and our future plans for HATESPHERE are the same, so it seems obvious to me, to work and play with these guys."

Added HATESPHERE in a statement: "Finding a new bass player showed not to be as easy, as we had hoped but our patience luckily paid off. Being a metalhead but coming from a punk rock background, Jimmy fits our profile perfectly. He knows what he is going into, he shares our visions with the band, he has tried something different than metal but still has it deep in his heart, and last but not least he's a great guy. Fitting in personally means a lot to us, so Jimmy's age and experience has made him the perfect choice. We have already played our first live show with him, partied with him and involved him in the writing process of the new songs, so he has had a busy start just as we want it."

HATESPHERE will enter Antfarm Studio in Aarhus, Denmark on June 13 with producer Tue Madsen to begin recording its new album for a September release via Napalm Records.

A YouTube clip featuring a snippet of a pre-production version of one of the new HATESPHERE songs is available below.

Vocalist Esben "Esse" Hansen joined HATESPHERE as the band's new singer in June 2010.

HATESPHERE's latest CD, "To The Nines" entered the official chart in Denmark at position No. 36.
