Hatebreed set to release Fatal Paradox, Europe tour

Jamey Jasta notes that Fatal Paradox is Hatebreed's first album in six years, signaling a significant return after a multi-year gap.
BLKIIBLK remains the band’s label home for Fatal Paradox, described as the Frontiers Label Group’s heavy-metal imprint, with the label stating they assembled a 'dream team' to back the release.
The official Fatal Paradox tracklist comprises 11 tracks, including 'Decisions Become Destinies,' 'Make The Demons Obey,' 'Poison Planet,' and the lineup-staple 'Sacrifice Season' featuring OBITUARY’s John Tardy.
A visualizer for the title track 'Fatal Paradox' has been released, offering fans a visual preview ahead of the album’s release.
The Summer Slaughter Tour remains in progress with Hatebreed on the second leg alongside Terror, Incantation, Gates To Hell, Torture and Creeping Death, and there are European dates planned in November with Life of Agony.
Hatebreed will release their ninth studio album, Fatal Paradox, on November 6 via BLKIIBLK, according to Metal Injection. The album marks the band's first full-length in six years, with the title track and lead single "Kill Count Increase" already unveiled. Vocalist Jamey Jasta and producer Chris "Zeuss" Harris continue their longtime collaboration on the project.
The 11-track album features meaty breakdowns and the band's signature brutal crossover hardcore sound, with guest appearances including OBITUARY's John Tardy on "Sacrifice Season," Revolver Magazine reported. Hatebreed will support the release with European dates in November alongside Life of Agony, continuing their ongoing Summer Slaughter Tour momentum.
Hatebreed's Fatal Paradox represents a major return for the Grammy-nominated Connecticut hardcore legends. The gap between albums marks their longest absence in decades, according to Chaoszine. Jamey Jasta and company have spent the intervening years touring heavily and maintaining festival presence, keeping the band's brutal sound alive for their fanbase.
Fatal Paradox spans 11 tracks including "Decisions Become Destinies," "Make The Demons Obey," "Poison Planet," and "The Carrion Choir," The Mosh reported. The standout track "Sacrifice Season" features OBITUARY vocalist John Tardy, bringing death metal credibility to the hardcore assault. This collaboration underscores BLKIIBLK's commitment to assembling what the label calls a 'dream team' for Hatebreed's comeback.
Chris "Zeuss" Harris returns as producer, bringing decades of collaboration with Hatebreed to Fatal Paradox. BLKIIBLK, the heavy-metal imprint under Frontiers Label Group, backed the project with significant resources. Next Mosh noted the label positioned the album as a new horizon for the veteran act, signaling renewed momentum after their six-year hiatus.
Hatebreed remains active on The Summer Slaughter Tour's second leg alongside Terror, Incantation, Gates To Hell, Torture, and Creeping Death. The band will hit Europe in November with Life of Agony, extending their touring momentum beyond the North American dates. This relentless schedule keeps Fatal Paradox constantly in front of audiences worldwide.
