HATE ETERNAL



For the writing and recording of Phoenix Amongst the Ashes, HATE ETERNAL sought out a new bassist and recruited J.J. Hrubovcak who joined the devastating combo of Erik Rutan on guitar and Jade Simonetto on drums. In terms of the writing on Phoenix Amongst the Ashes, Rutan stated "it was my goal to expand upon what the band has done in the past, and add new dynamics and twists to the traditional, dissonant HATE ETERNAL style, yet keep it in the same vein. It took the three of us really pushing ourselves, and digging deep into the essence of who we are as musicians and writers and players to create something very unique and special. We cannot wait for everyone to hear what we have in store."

HATE ETERNAL recorded their fifth studio album at frontman Erik Rutan's own Mana Recording Studios in St. Petersburg, FL with mastering handled by Alan Douches of West West Side. Artwork was once again handled by Paul Romano (Mastodon, Chiodos, The Acacia Strain, Godflesh, Earth Crisis) who has also created cover art for HATE ETERNAL’s I, Monarch, The Perilous Fight (DVD), and Fury & Flames.

Coronach.... .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .... .... .. .. .. .. .. .. ........................ ...... .. .. .. .. ...... Started in 1997 by Erik Rutan of Morbid Angel and Ripping Corpse fame, Hate Eternal quickly became one of the most talked about extreme metal bands on the scene due to the band’s ability to create exceptional albums, tons of touring, and live shows that left fans hungering for more. Almost three years after the brutal extreme metal masterpiece, I, Monarch, Hate Eternal are back with a new record and a new home on Metal Blade Records. Fury and Flames, the bands’ fourth studio album, marks the start of a new chapter in Hate Eternal’s already illustrious career. Upon the first spin, listeners will immediately be able to tell that Fury and Flames is the band’s most diverse and heavy chaotic and emotionally fueled record to date......... .. Though the band has experienced great success since its inception in 1997, Hate Eternal are no strangers to turmoil and strife. In 2002, Erik Rutan chipped vertebrae in his neck in a van accident while on tour and spent the next couple months out of commission. Erik has also been left to deal with band members backing out of tours last minute including one tour, in which a show in London was being filmed for the band’s first ever live DVD. None of this ever held Erik or Hate Eternal back though, replacements were found and the tours continued on as planned. Another extremely unfortunate event was the untimely passing of bassist and dear friend, Jared Anderson, in October 2006 while in talks to rejoin the band......... .. For the writing and recording of Fury and Flames, Rutan sought out a new lineup. He re-recruited long time friend Alex Webster (of Cannibal Corpse fame) to play bass on the album, and found a new drummer in Jade Simonetto. Rutan describes Jade: “[he has a] voracious hunger for perfection; Jade came in and changed the face of the band with his relentless speed, accuracy, endurance, as well as his serious groove which was lacking from previous albums”. “Alex literally created bass lines I have never heard before that were more like compositions rather than bass lines. Although Alex Webster was able to lend his talents to the recording of Fury and Flames, he will not be able to tour with the band due to his busy schedule with Cannibal......... .. All of Erik’s prior experiences have led up to what he describes as his most diverse and heaviest records to date. In an MTVnews.com interview Rutan says Fury and Flames is “a very dark and heavy record — not just heavy as in 'heavy metal,' but heavy-hearted as well.” With guitars as technically proficient as ever, a new force behind the drums, and Alex Webster on bass, Fury and Flames promises to set a new bench mark in the world of modern extreme metal......... .. Fury and Flames features cover art by Paul Romano (Mastodon, Animosity, The Red Chord).

    .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. "FURY AND FLAMES" Session Bassist .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. This has been so hard for me to put into words for I am just devastated. Jared was such an incredible person, amazing musician and most of all, a best friend, a brother, family. Jared and I played together for over 5 years in Hate Eternal. We worked together on Internecine, we toured together with Morbid Angel and spent some of the best days of our lives together as band mates and as best friends..... Jared was so devoted to his music, life, his friends and his family. There was nothing he would not do for anyone he cared for. Jared was there for me as I was for him, through thick and thin, good times and bad, a friend you could trust with your life. Jared and I spoke last week as we often did ,he sounded so positive, healthy in his heart, in his mind, in his body. Jared worked so hard to accomplish all his goals in life and his dreams..... We always talked about the good old times and how great it would be to play together again someday. How Jared and I did so much together and lived a dream that so many wish to live. These times I will always cherish. Jared will always be a part of me for the rest of my life. I will never forget the friend he was to me and the endless devotion and loyalty he had for his fans, friends and family..... I will always be grateful to have had Jared be such a big part of my life. I shall carry on your memory forever ,your music will live on forever, your spirit will live on forever. Let us rejoice in all he did in his life and for the lives around him that he ever so touched. Now it is time for me to go support the Anderson family in their time of need and do one of the hardest things I have ever done, put my best friend to eternal rest..... You will never be forgotten my friend, may you find peace!!! I love you brother!!.... .. ..ERIK RUTAN.... HATE ETERNAL..
