Hatebreed – drop first new music in 5 years “Make The Demons Obey” + UK & Irish tour dates in October as special guests to Killswitch Engage

Grammy-nominated, Connecticut hardcore icons HATEBREED, who remain one of the most impactful and enduring bands of the modern era, have dropped the tectonic plate-shifting new single “Make The Demons Obey.”

It’s the first new music from the band since 2020’s Weight Of The False Self album.

And it was well worth the wait.

Make The Demons Obey” is everything you know, love, want, and expect from HATEBREED. PMA lyrics, sick riffs, singalongs that will make you swarm to the front of the stage, and some of the deadliest, beefiest breakdowns known to man.

“Lots of bands say that their newest release will be their heaviest and I guess we are no different,” says singer Jamey Jasta. “We’ve managed to push the envelope and surpass our expectations. We’ve become tighter, harder and more vicious than ever. This is the most excited I’ve been for any Hatebreed release.”

“Very exciting things are happening in the Hatebreed camp,” states drummer Matt Byrne“It’s time to unleash this beast — new music is here! This is the fastest, most vicious, and most aggressive music we have ever created and I’m pumped for the world to hear it.”

HATEBREED return to the UK & Ireland as special guests to KILLSWITCH ENGAGE for a string of nine unmissable dates in October. And if that wasn’t enough, they’ll be joined by FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY and DECAPITATED. Tickets are on sale now here.

Wed 8th Oct – WOLVERHAMPTON Civic Hall
