Hatebreed plans coffee table book, MTV retrospective, covers album

According to a report from Rocksound Magazine, Hatebreed frontman Jamey Jasta has announced a few new projects.

The first is a sort-of annotated Hatebreed lyrics book which will be featured as a coffee-table style pressing complete with tour stories, and explanations behind some of the lyrics. The second book is a document of the frontman’s time hosting MTV’s Headbanger’s Ball. He adds:

That book is more of a retrospective of all the bands and interviews we conducted, more of a look back, I was so glad I got to do that show; somehow, with no TV experience, they picked me for the job over 300 other people who applied for it. Because of that, I met some of my heroes and got the chance to help out so many of my friends with exposure on the show. The book is all about that and the behind-the-scenes nightmare of trying to schedule everything with a full-time touring musician. There were a lot of flights.

Jasta also discussed the band’s parting ways with Roadrunner Records saying:

They had a bunch of people on their label, and we felt we didn’t get the publicity push that we deserved for our last record. We realized we need to go to a place where we can be the big fish in the small pond. But ultimately there’re no hard feelings; the split was good on both sides.

For the follow up to Supremacy, the band is planning a compilation of covers with Hatebreed tackling songs from hardcore and metal acts like Cro-Mags, Metallica, D.R.I. and Crowbar.
