Hatebreed announce cover album release

February 9, 2009

For The Lions, the new covers album from Hatebreed, is set to be released on May 5th through E1 Music.

The band has also welcomed back their original guitarist, Wayne Lozink, in response to the departure of Sean M. Martin.

Frontman Jamey Jasta said:

"I speak on behalf of all of us and we support Sean’s decision to leave and want him to be happy and successful at everything he does. There are no bad feelings at all and you’ll probably see him hanging on stage at some of our local shows. We’re family and he will be missed but Hatebreed will forge on."

Sean M. Martin said:

"After 10 years, I’ve decided to leave Hatebreen. This in no way reflects my personal relationship with Jamey, Chris, Matt and Frank; they’re four of my closest friends and I’ll always love them with all my heart. I want to thank all of the fans as well as the guys in the band and crew, past and present, for giving me some of the best times of my life."
