Hm, I don't know why the fifth Hatebreed album is titled "Hatebreed"... Anyway, guitarero Wayne Lozinak is aboard again - musicwise, nothing has changed in the house of Hatebreed. And the blokes won't hand over the Hardcore crown to any given party that easily. "In ashes they shall reap" sounds like a tribute to those times in New York's legendary Hardcore club CBGB - a Hardcore bomb disguised as old school composition... "No halos for the heartless" shows the band's penchant for influences of the early Thrash scene. "Undiminished" is the most surprising song on the album, an instrumental up and down you wouldn't have expected of this outfit. "Words became untruth" (very Thrash-y) is kind of an exception here - otherwise, it is business as usual for the aggro kings. Brutal riffs and Jasta's unique voice dominate this album which proves the fact that Hatebreed still rule supreme.
