Hatebreed Premiere ‘Seven Enemies’ Lyric Video

HATEBREED have premiered the lyric video for the track, ‘Seven Enemies,’ which can be viewed on YouTube:

The song, from HATEBREED’s upcoming album, ‘The Concrete Confessional’ set for release this Friday 13th May via Nuclear Blast, is a take on the Seven Deadly Sins that have a place in most of the world’s religions.  “A lot of people gravitate towards their vices and sins and it dooms them,” said the band’s Jamey Jasta.  “They lead to destructive lifestyle patterns, and then that starts affecting the people around them.”

‘Seven Enemies’ is now available as an instant-grat track when ‘The Concrete Confessional’ is pre-ordered on iTunes – http://nblast.de/HatebreedTCCIT.  Fans can also pre-order via Amazon – http://bit.ly/HatebreedAMZCD.  There are also UK exclusives available; a CD/beanie bundle and a limited edition white vinyl version – http://bit.ly/HatebreedShop or a ltd edition black vinyl version – http://bit.ly/HatebreedAMZVin.  Snap ’em up before they’re gone!

Hatebreed
SEVEN ENEMIES
Today is not the fucking day
I sympathize with their pain
Their negative ways
Giving birth to endless cries and complaints
I’m too close, just boiling with rage
I choke on this feeling of war
In my throat every day
Swallowed every bitter pill, now I’m forced to chew
Hearing every vicious word
Their filthy mouths spew
My thoughts descend into the abyss
My heart is begging me to finish thisToday I wish a motherfucker would try
Think of someone other than themselves one time
Today I wish a motherfucker would try
To see this fucked up world through my eyes

Please god don’t let me act on these words
And forgive those who choose to test my last nerve
I see red, can’t cleanse it away
They took kindness for weakness
Now they answer on this desperate day
Wake up alone, again nothing’s changed
Infected my demons, all my visions become deranged
Seven enemies to vanquish one by one
Hatred blisters the surface of my tongue

Today I wish a motherfucker would try
Think of someone other than themselves one time
Today I wish a motherfucker would try
To see this fucked up world through my eyes

Not today
I thought they’d find a better way
Today is not the fucking day

About Louise Swift

I first went to a gig in 1981, Gillan at Leeds University. I've been a regular gig goer ever since. I haven't kept count of how many gigs I've been to over the intervening years, but it's a lot! My favourite bands are AC/DC then, in no particular order, Anti-Nowhere League, Slaughter and the Dogs, Towers of London and Dirt Box Disco. I tend to like Glam/Punk and rude offensive lyrics, not sure what that says about me but as Animal would say 'So What!' The question was recently put to me - did I write for any online publications? My reply - No, but I'd like to! Planetmosh was suggested and I found myself offering to review Aces High Festival. Easy peasy I thought! Well not quite, if a jobs worth doing it's worth doing well! I had sixteen bands to research. I found I actually enjoyed that and it kept me too busy to be making lunatic comments on Facebook! ;) Then I felt a bit inadequately qualified. I mean, who am I to comment on others, when my musical expertise extends to being able to play a mean Greensleeves on the recorder and a passable Annie's song on the flute! Haven't picked up either instrument for years! What I do have, however, is over 30 years of experience as a gig goer, so I can comment on what I like and what I don't! It's only my opinion and, if I don't like a band it doesn't mean they are bad, just not to my own liking. I admire anyone who has the guts to get up on that stage and have a go!
