[MUSIC INTERVIEW] HATE – Bellum Regiis Interview

With a dozen ferocious and lauded albums since 1996’s Daemon Qui Fecit Terram/, Hate’s lucky thirteenth album, Bellum Regiis, sees the unrelenting Polish quartet forging a bolder and more aggressive style than ever. Bellum Regiis’ nine songs see vocalist/guitarist ATF Sinner, guitarist  Domin, drummer Nar-Sil, and bassist Tiermes honing a modern sound rife with eerie atmosphere and depth. Produced by David Castillo (Candlemass, Carcass, Dark Tranquility, Katatonia) at Stockholm’s Grondahl Studio, Bellum Regiis is lyrically a more “humanity focused and personal” album than Rugia. Bellum Regiis’ songs, explains founder Sinner, are a timely aural and visual exploration of “a struggle for power and everything that comes with it.”

This week Dave Griffiths sat down with the band for a chat about the new album. You can take a listen right here:
