Hey, it's another Hatebreed album, and according to statements from Jasta this one was supposed to be their "most brutal" yet. I fail to see that, as every album is supposedly their most brutal but all I hear is "Perseverance" and "Rise of Brutality" in 2006.
Any Hatebreed fan knows that "Satisfaction is the Death of Desire" is all you need from Hatebreed and everything else is just the repeat of the album with Jasta's vocals slightly more aggressive. Jasta's lyrics really haven't gone any places left unexplored; still plenty of overcoming and his persistence to be heard still going on with "Supremacy". Now on to the music.
What more is there to say about a Hatebreed song? Other than the fact that anyone very well knows how to play drums in 4/4 now even if they haven't been behind a kit, just throw a Hatebreed album on. What you get in way of song is fast stripped down simpler than an autistic child's riffs and then, wait for it, breakdowns, and more breakdowns. Slap another breakdown on those breakdowns and you have yourself a breakdown song like, that other song they play, titles aren't important here if ya catch my drift.

It's hard to believe that Jamey Jasta, a guy who seemingly has achieved everything he's worked his ass off for, fell into a severe sense of depression a short while back. Thankfully SUPREMACY, the latest piledriving effort by Hatebreed, is the end result of Jasta's breaking free of those chains. As brutal as anything the band has ever set to disc, this 13-track tour de force of Metalcore 101 sets the record straight and justifies why this band gets the accolades, the tours, and the attention they richly deserve. Jasta's vocals throughout are seething, reaching new highs and sinking to new lows with an unadulterated rage, while the rest of the band provides a bruising backdrop of the most intelligent brand of punch your friend in the face music going. Anthemic and able to create a personalized swift kick to the ass at moment's notice, Hatebreed's vitriolic virtue has never sounded as complete, beefing up to a quintet once again to resonate a dastardly twin guitar assault that smacks you in the face. Horns and fists in the air, people, Hatebreed is at the top of its game. And despite naysayers labeling the New Haven hardcore masters as one dimensional, like Motorhead and AC/DC, Hatebreed has time and time again unwaveringly produced their genre's best often replicated but never duplicated brand of heavy music.
