This is my first post and what better way to start off than a Hatebreed thread.The time from from Under the Knife to Perseverance I was a diehard fan.Back then all I listened to was hardcore but my interest in all metal grew from there.
With that said,I liked the new album.My opinion could be a bit biased because I'm a long time supporter but I wasn't disappointed with the release.While some of the songs didn't fit the Hatebreed 'feel',it was nice to hear them cover different styles that they weren't accustomed to playing.My favorites off of the album were the Slayer,Metallica and Subzero covers.Their cover of Escape is nasty IMO.
While I would have preferred some originals,hearing them pay tribute to the bands that inspired them was cool.Also,a tribute album like this is a lot better than having them rush together new material that could potentially be subpar.
