BIO:
Hatebreed was formed in 1994 in Connecticut. They began by recording a three song demo and selling it at local shows. Two of those three songs would eventually be released on a split seven inch with New York's Neglect in 1995. They followed that up with the highly acclaimed 7"/cassette EP "Under the Knife" in 1996 and went out on tour around the east coast/midwest with the UKHC band Voorhees. The following year (1997) they released Satisfaction is the Death of Desire on Victory Records, then the home of some of the biggest bands in hardcore. Satisfaction sold more copies than any other debut in the history of the record company.
Tours with national hard rock & metal bands such as Motorhead, Danzig, Slayer, Deftones, Entombed and Sepultura influenced their music and brought them to the attention of many non-hardcore/metalcore fans. These influences were apparent on the band's next two releases, 2002's Perseverance, and especially 2003's The Rise of Brutality.
