HATEBAZ

Friday, January 30th, 2009 at 2:19pm by Axl Rosenberg

Those rumors that have been floating around are apparently true: Hatebreed’s Jamey Jasta is working with Sebastian Bach on the latter’s new album. Blabbermouth reports that Jasta has said the following about the collaboration:

All the Skid Row/Bach fans need not worry; I am not trying to infuse a Hatebreed/Kingdom of Sorrow sound or style. I’m just hoping to write and produce a bunch of GREAT anthemic metal/rock songs for him. Think Painkiller-era Priest meets Vulgar Display of Power meets Slave To The Grind.

I think that Jasta has the right idea about what kind of album Baz should make – lest we forget, Skid Row and Pantera were tour mates once upon a time, and certainly the Priest/Skid direction doesn’t seem far-fetched – but I am not confident that Jasta is the man to make this happen (and I say that as someone who actually likes Hatebreed). As our pal Anso at Hipsters Out of Metal! notes, “if Jasta were able to pen material on par with Paaain!Killah!, Vulgar, [and] Slave (greatest hard rock album of all time?), I gotta ask: Why has he been holding this material back for a Sebastian Bach solo album that no one will hear?”

    wow, this is a real “meeting of the minds”. if only the studio this was being done is was on a fault line or something…

  3. Metal Martyr says:

    This sounds great, but Bach can’t hit those notes anymore.

    “Think Painkiller-era Priest meets Vulgar Display of Power meets Slave To The Grind.”

    Oh man if anything ever sounded like that it would be awesome. Good luck…

  5. Retin says:

    The fact that the headline didnt read “Baz Turd” upsets me so very much. So very, very much.

    CREED AND NICKELBACK ARE WAAAY BETTER THAN ANY DEATH PUKE METAL BAND. SATANIC METAL SOUNDS LIKE A PUTRID HOCKEYSTAIN. LOGS/FASKINGS.

  7. pdf says:

    Sebastian Bach’s last solo album was a really good, heavy hard rock record, underrated and unjustly ignored.

  8. logs/faskings says:

    STALE STANIC POOTS. LOGS/FASKINGS.

    I hope this works out. By the way, Appetite For Destruction is the greatest hard rock album of all time.

    I’m a fan of Jasta, so I’m actually kinda interested in hearing what he can do with the trainwreck that is Bach. So far I dig everything else Jasta’s done (Kingdom Of Sorrow, Hatebreed, Icepick).

  11. RobotScythe says:

    Good point about Jasta holding back all this great music thus far. If he has it in him, why doesn’t it come out? Never been a big fan of things Jasta ha sbeen a part of. Always found his music to be typical one-dimensional, paint by numbers hardcore stock. Kinda interested to hear what Bach could bring out of Jasta, not vice-versa.

    Two shitty musicians from two shitty bands join forces?!? I can’t wait for the album!!1!

  13. Owen says:

    Well if we look at maths negative x a negative is a positive.

    So surely shit x shit = fucking awesome?

    No?!??!

    nah, it’s just shit multiplied
