Hate Eternal

"Zealot, Crusader of War"

Florida metal outfit Hate Eternal's ongoing promo period ahead of the release of their Infernus has left us with another destructive number. This time, they're in full-on blast beat battle-mode with their "Zealot, Crusader of War."

Truthfully, the band give up some ghoulish, double-kick grooves in the intro, but a relentless barrage of snare blasts kick in right about the time band leader Erik Rutan growls out that we're "in the face of annihilation."

The metal track comes multi-chambered, with Hate Eternal occasionally diving into demented and off-kilter rhythms. They're also set to bowl over the non-believers with barricade-busting mosh parts.

This latest onslaught can be streamed through the player below, while the rest of Infernus wrecks us August 21 via Season of Mist.
