What exactly do I mean by the misunderstood genius of Hatebreed?? All this:
* Their roots in the 90s hardcore scene, "Under The Knife" demo and "Satisfaction Is The Death Of Desire"
* How "Perseverance" re-defined the band with songs like "Hollow Ground" and "I Will Be Heard"
* What makes Jamey Jasta's lyrics in songs like "Destroy Everything," "Defeatist" and "Looking Down The Barrel of Today" so special
* How they're SO different from punk bands like Black Flag or Social Distortion
* The contributions Jamey made to the scene with Headbanger's Ball, The Jasta Show and more

no can do bucko
Jamey is so personable. I've met him at least five times, and he has never acted like a rock star. He talks to every single person everytime. I'm not even a huge Hatebreed fan, but I am a huge Jamey fan. Keep on kicking ass.
I really appreciate your videos man, but I just can't see how you couldn't also say how emotionality intelligent some of Panteras music is! Lots of their lyrical content is about such deep subjects. Shedding skin, hard lines sunken cheeks, uplift, 10s, just Phil's lyricism was so poetic I think and he had such a way of putting words together to convey deep subjects
Keep it up man! Killer video
Also man, I'm a recovering addict, keep up the good work, I'm proud of you for doing so well dude!
Solid fuckin video man
When I was going through brain cancer last year everyday when I woke up sick to my stomach from treatment I would listen to the song Perseverance right when I got up and it helped me fight and beat my cancer, cancer free for a year already 😎🤘🏻👊🏻
Happy to hear that my friend!
Stay strong brother....
Glad you persevered, and are still with us. That's the epitome of, really. Cheers man 🤘😉🤘🍻
That is awesome man, very happy for you
God Bless! overcoming through positive thinking, another great band "Against All Odds"
"I was born to bleed fighting to succeed, Built to endure what this world throws at me"...Helps me get through the day sometimes
Same! But just remember when it gets tough bro, aint one legend ever been written about any warrior who had it easy.
"In ashes they shall reap" is a daily spin for me as well.
Still here
Played the fuck out of this song during my divorce

I have this tatted on me. Hatebreed will forever be my favorite.
Hatebreed is like the badass uncle everyone needs, telling you what you need to hear
couldn't have worded it better
"Defeatist .. you and I will never be the same" still resonates with me to this day
Me too. Recently was homeless for almost a year. Took alot of work but I made it out two days ago.
@@mitchelnorton2692 hey man all the power to you ✊ Hatebreed was one of the first, I guess you could say "heavy" bands that I came across and through any and all obstacles I've faced, that phrase always plays through my head. They are on my constant gym rotation and gets the blood pumping every time
@@mitchelnorton2692 been there bro, hard but congrats to you for never quitting. The world needs more of that.
It's Insane how Hatebreed was formed just to write the opening song for PRMBA's TH-cam channel.
I always wondered what song that was lol
I still miss the STRAIGHT TO YOUR FACE
Ayoooo 😂
Were the lyrics removed because of copyright infringement?
any idea what song is he using for currents intro?
I was a black kid who grew up in the late 90s 2000's hardcore scene. Hatebreed got me through some dark times in my life. not fitting in with hardcore kids due to racism in he day and not fitting in with black kids because i liked hardcore and metal. among other issues I was having in my life at the time reading lyrics and listening to hatebreed brought me back from the edge. I hate to sound cheesy but without bands like Hatebreed and Circa Survive, I would be dead today, i would have never met my wife and never had my amazing daughter.
Respect ✊🏽
As a white person, it makes me deeply embarrassed to hear about people of color being discriminated against anywhere, but especially in the heavy music scene. Respect to you for getting through that shit.
Fuck racism, you are awesome bro!
@@dcfromthev You're awesome for making it through. I try to fight racism through actions not just words. I lived in Eric Garner's neighborhood and I got pretty involved in the community. I did many protests for justice for Eric Garner. At the time I was on the board of directors of peace action of Staten Island. We worked really closely with Staten Island against racism and police brutality. We helped provide support to Eric Garner's family and to get school supplies for the schools his kids went to. White people need to start getting outraged about racism. We can't leave it up to black people to fix a problem they did not create. I wish there were more anti racist anthems in metal.
You were a black kid? Your not black anymore?
I’ve been telling people about this for 15 years. Hatebreed is the most positive hard-core metal band ever was and ever will be. Thank you for this video. It puts the most metal tear in my eye.
I don't even know that I'd narrow them to just hardcore...I don't personally know of any metal/rock band as positive as Hatebreed and hardcore isn't even my main genre of music I like lol curious what you and others have to say.
hArDcOrE mEtAl
YES.
Nailed it.
All one has to do is just _listen_ to Jamey’s lyrics, and one will find that they’re not puddle deep, dunce cap kid in the corner words. The lyrics contain deep, personal feelings that most people can relate to. Yin and Yang.
I'm 28 now and the first song I listened too was destroy everything when I was in my teens. Later on I heard another song of theirs that talked about corruption which I thought was different so I kept listening. They're not on my Playlist currently but I never forgot them
"How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today, I must control my self to control my destiny" my favorite line of all their songs..
Hard yes to this!
Alienated hardcore black kid back in the day that ended up getting into weight lifting and heavily inked, Hatebreed is chicken noodle soup for the soul.
Jamey Jasta's lyrics remind me of rap lyrics at times with overcoming adversity and addressing haters, so it was an instant win for me. Thanks for defending the fans on this.
Yes! That's why I like a lot of rap lyrics too
Check out discrepancies, they're good too
Your chicken noodle soup analogy is so appropiate.
My daily hatebreed's lyrics is "if you don't live for something you will die for nothing"
This is the truth, the struggle the sacrifice! love that song
I love this but it's definitely an AA quote lol
@@fredericksoenske9192 asking alexandria or attack attack? lol if one of them says it thats cool cause its from the song live for this by hatebreed
This is my life motto
@@fredericksoenske9192 definitely you haven't listened this band lol hahahhaha
“Once had a shotgun to my head they said I wasn’t worth the bullets”
“Now the world is my trigger and I’m gunna Fucking pull it”
I was at the concert, where they filmed Destroy Everything. Jasta stopped mid song, because he saw someone go down in the mosh pit and got this guy help. As you can see in the video, there were 20,000 people there, and it was wild! But because of Jasta we all watched out for each other. Dude is a legend!
Jasta always reinforces “If someone goes down. You pick them up” at Hatebreed shows.
Respect. Look out for others in the pit.
@@WeBeFit I thought this is an unwritten rule at shows. Never been at a concert where the crowd continued doing there thing when someone was gone down. Instead immediately a circle formed to allow the dude to get up, with or without help.
@@j1shin that’s been my experience too.
@@j1shinGo to a Travis Scott show. Those fools have no common sense!
I suppose the message is in here. OP thought it inspiring that Jamey was bringing the hardcore values to tens of thousands of people, and that IS his biggest legacy
Jamie's lyrics have helped more people than he could possibly know. Hatebreed songs are cathartic
Legit, the whole Supremacy album helped me through some trying times. The lyrics make you want to conquer the world while bettering yourself at the same time. 🤘🏻
20 years after finding out about Hatebreed, they still offer me catharsis after a shitty day. I fucking heart Hatebreed, super under-rated band imo.
Same for me. Divinity of purpose got me through the thorns
Jamey's podcast is really good.
Very true
“I was at a street fight once and a Hatebreed show broke out.”
Dam... I was in a brawl and a blood for blood show broke out. Funny how these things happen 🤣
@@Iwatched138 truly!!
Back when, yes. Now they're just another mainstream band.
ROFL
Hatebreed and earth crisis at the el n gee ct huge fight
"Satisfaction is the Death of Desire" was absolutely amazing.
A hardcore masterpiece.
All their albums are masterpieces. Anyone who is a fan knows this.
The biggest circle pit I have ever seen in Cleveland at old Nautica stage which is now Jacob's pavilion .Tattoo the Earth festival. Absolutely unforgettable 💯❤️🤟. Jamey isn't called the hardest working man and hardcore for nothing!💯🤟
@@floydsemlow8253 I was there too! That was a great show. Around the same time, maybe a year earlier, I saw Hatebreed with Run Devil Run at the old Peabodys. It was equally as memorable.
@@62killab I love run devil run I was there as well I haven't missed Hatebreed come to Cleveland ever since I saw them on tattoo the Earth festival that old Nautica stage they had that whole floor a circle pit I was memorized I haven't missed them since but that show at Old Peabody's was awesome they always rip live. 🙌🤘🍻
I was a gangster rap person. Until my first hardcore show in Detroit at the Shelter. Earth Crisis leading and Hatebreed opening. Scare the shit outta me when I saw how big some of them dudes in the pit were. Nowhere to run. The crowns tightens around you as everyone tries to get closer. You just gotta deal. It was a great rush. Last Breath is what roped me though. I use them when I need a push.
Hope you got to see cold as life such a underrated band.
This is going to sound lame but this video legitimately did help me. I’m going through a really crappy breakup where my ex girlfriend cheated on me and lied to me for 3 months while stringing me along. It’s a super toxic situation but reading some of those lyrics and trying to put a more positive spin on my outlook is something I definitely need to do to get back on track and not let this situation eat at me like it has. Thank you for this.
You'll get through it! I had a similar experience over the course of six months. On the plus: I learned to not ignore red flags and became a better person eventually for it. I hope the same for you, internet stranger. 💜
@@dead_beatbunny thank you for that. I’m sorry you went through the same situation. It’s awful.
@Jonathan A thank you for your kind words. I appreciate it.
Dawg we're in a very similar situation. It sucks now but it is better to get rid of the dead weight.
@@alexmorado2182 thanks bro. It sucks this happening now but maybe it’s a blessing. I don’t know. Good luck to you dude. I hope things get better for you too!
Hatebreed is one of the most positive bands ever. Strength, struggle, honor. That is what Hatebreed is about.
That being said, Social Distortion is still one of the most important bands in my history. But the Ned Flanders was hilarious
In my darkest hour their music saved my life as a 37+ year old woman. The lyrics are incredible, raw, honest and hopeful. Also it has the ability to drive away dark minded people. I sing my being out and am free to go forward unrestricted. This is my all time favorite band in all ways. Thanks to sin who was 14 when he introduced me to the this amazing band.
The last time I saw Hatebreed was 2019 when they played with Terror. A few of us tripped over each other in the pit and I ended catching a knee to the face and got split open. I was 41 at the time. I can’t stay away from shows or the pit. I still get goosebumps every time I go to a show , I love hardcore. I always will
Same here, man. I'm 40 and still can't stay away from the pit.
51 years old now and I'm the same . Love hardcore
This is the way
54 here . Broke my nose twice in a Slayer pit. Tore my rotator cuff in a Lamb of God pit. And I ♥️♥️♥️ the pit to this day.
Hatebreed shows are always brutal. I just remember to keep my arms up to protect my nose🤣
The dichotomy of brutality and a positive message is always appealing to me.
Was at same tour,times square Sony theater,ripping,great show and I'm 61.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that's noticed how wholesome hatebreed really is
they come from a place of challenging people to do better for themselves first and foremost. i love hatebreed and their music makes me feel good.
You should have brought back the straight to your face intro for this
Edit: nevermind
...wait for it
You might want to watch the video until the end
You didn’t watch the full vid
“Talk to me after you’ve been up for 3 days in downtown LA doing coke.” Oh man. Words can’t describe how awful that feeling is. And it was awesome hearing how you found the right emotions in music that helped you moved past that horrible state of mind.
I have been through a lot trauma. When I found I will be heard in high school, it got me through. Their music helps me deal with intense feelings. I love it.
Hatebreed is literally the first band I ever saw perform live. Not on purpose either. I was 12 years old and went to the 2007 free Ozzfest and Hatebreed just happened to be the band that was playing when I arrived. Never heard of them at the time (I was there for Ozzy). Definitely a fantastic introduction to live music.
Me too!
Same, back in like 2000-2004 in CT. All CT shows were nuts back in the day.
Mine too actually supporting machine head in newport uk
That one meme where the dude is talking to the uninterested girl who is staring off into the distance:
“Yeah, so they’re called Hatebreed. And they’re actually way deeper than most people give them credit for. You see this tattoo? ....”
😂
Hilarious and that man is me
My cousin is the bassist. We used to play Star Wars when we were little back in Bridgeport CT. I'd go to their house & all their Star Wars figures were decapitated. They got the GI Joe Flagg. That's one GI Joe toy I never really wanted. I moved South & we lost contact because their phone was disconnected.
Gojira is another band that has a lot emotional intelligence fused into their music. I have the lyrics from The Link tattooed on my arm as a reminder live with integrity. "Be the link, you create what you are"
I was about to write this man. Gojira gives a similar point of view based on this duality of being. Far distant from Hardcore in it's core, for me was Gojira first and Hatebreed last, but if you love this band and never heard of Gojira, give them a chance. From 2 music nerds, to one random guy reading this in another timeline.
I can definitely tell that im a Jira nerd because I sung that quote in my head as soon as I saw it 😂
I don't have an opinion on Hatebreed- I'm a metal guy, never got far into hardcore- but Finn, this is one of the best videos you've done.
@Luke Adding on to that, Hatebreed have a lot of Metal in their DNA and have really crossed over into being big in the Metal scene.
Been a metal guy since I was about 3 years old, and I have about 4 or 5 Hatebreed songs I really like. They're a decent group. I can't seem to finish one of their albums in one sitting because about halfway through I get bored listening to it.
@Luke You hear Metal because Hatebreed are a Metalcore band. Their sound is rooted in both Hardcore and Metal. Traditional Hardcore is rooted in the Punk scene so for Metal enthusiasts who don't like Punk and Hardcore, their Hardcore sound is very obvious, which can be a turnoff for some Metalheads. When I first listened to Hatebreed, my first interpretation of them was a Hardcore band that stole Slayer riffs. My opinion has shifted since then. I'm not the biggest fan of the band. The music is good, but not amazing. It's Jasta's lyrics that really grab onto me. Everything that is said in this video is exactly why I like this band.
Im just here cause i seen the word hardcore. And it really brought back my deep rooted hatred for slam dancers. Those trash pickin windmill kickin fucks.
@@lifewithlouie420 No karate in the pit!
*The "Doomsayer" breakdown is still the most filthy breakdown in the history of breakdowns. BREAKDOWNS!*
*YOUR DOOM AWAITS YOU!*
The one in Divine Judgment is wild too.
Chris Beatties bass is a huge part of their sound. His breakdowns especially on Doomsayer are massive

I remember a friend lending me his Perseverance album. By the end of the week I was obsessed. What a band!
Fuck no! Hatebreed absolutely saved my life. In my darkest hour when I was ready to end my life. I only had my mp3 playing their songs like perseverance, live for this and this is now playing and felt the will to continue returning and stepped off the edge. Looking back I know I would have jumped without their music. And the more they release, the more I know they care and want others to strive and flourish. I really wish I could thank them in person for saving my life. My babies wouldn’t be here being the absolute best anything in my life. My mother would have had the last laugh and my dad would have bragged about been right about me.
In hospital now man, i know how you felt. 😢
"which is why hatebreed has to be hatebreed and not lovebreed." best quote
Merry Christmas Eve Finn and Lynn! Same goes to everyone watching this video!
Merry Christmas
And Punk Rocking New year
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas
Thank you dude. Merry Christmas to you too!
I’ve seen Hatebreed around 16 times live over the years. I have never seen any putt of control violence at their shows. They have always been fun experiences. Jamie’s lyrics are very inspiring. They are my favourite heavy band of all time.
Grew up in Connecticut, and I discovered Hatebreed when I was going through a dark time myself, and it helped me. I still listen to their stuff when I feel down or need a kick in the ass. I've been to Hatebreed shows in local small venues in Connecticut and never experienced violence from the crowd, there seemed to be a great respect in the Hardcore Scene for them in New Haven. Supposedly there was a short time I might have even been in the same high school as Jamey Jasta. But I don't remember him and he probably didn't know me. But his music did help me through a lot.
"ITS YA BOI RAID SHADOW LEGENDS"
Brooo! That literally made me laugh out loud! Not something I usually do.
Perseverance absolutely changed my life. I have that word tattooed across my chest. Hearing that album when it dropped when I was in the 7th grade was such a game changer of an album for me in so many ways.
Their music is powerful af, they helped me get through leukemia and don’t give up. For that reason alone they will always have a special place in my heart.
“This is now”The rift got me listening and the lyrics hit home. Then I started digging for more and more heat read songs with lyrics that I could identify with. Looking down the barrel of today and this is now got me through some tough times.
The lyrics of Perseverence is the best lyrics of all times. If u hvnt listen to it go do it even if u r not a metalhead
Perseverance is one of those albums that got me through all the lowest lows in my life.One of the most Lyrically positive I have heard in my life.
Loved Satisfaction but this was such an amazing jump in maturity both lyrically and musically
The end of the 2nd verse is so amazing....
"Resurrect every dream that you buried alive and never surcome to the war that you fight INYOURHEART"
Then the breakdown riffs come in and its definitely inspirational
A lot of these Hatebreed lyrics remind me of Killswitch Engage in a way--intense, yet positive and defiant. Bravo once again, Finn!
Their last 3 albums Disarm the Decent, Incarnate and Atonement with Jesse Leach's writing are all amazing.
Definitely. I listen to Alive Or Just Breathing regularly and Fixation On The Darkness, Vide Infra and Rise Inside are some of my favourite songs ever. I'll even add the first Killswitch song I ever heard This Fire Burns (thanks CM Punk)
Just in general those are usually my favorite types of bands. And pretty much for the exact same reason Finn talked about in the video, not wallowing in darkness but not avoiding it either.
As a metalhead i always loved their gigs, pure energy. And I always felt like they were some kind of hardcore paladins
I started listening to Hatebreed last year and fell in love with their message
I listened to "I will be heard" like Finn said: in the right moment, at the right place, 'cause I was going through a difficult time with my family and going to therapy to deal with it better, so, the song in question helped me a lot into making the decision to finally kick out my drunk ass step father.
The song was perfect for what I was going through and those lyrics were just perfect and now are my anthem. I find it unbelieveable how much I felt that those lyrics was just the thing I needed.
Now is the time for me to rise to my feet
wipe your spit from my face
wipe this tears from my eyes
I swear to live by those lyrics.
People who don’t like them have never read their lyrics. Hatebreed has gotten me through some really dark times
Being from Connecticut, have to say these guys are legends!!! Jamie is a huge inspiration around here for how hard he works in the music industry considering CT gets shadowed between NYC and Boston. Great to see them getting some love!
*They sure are. I'm from New Britain and I've been a fan since 97. What a journey!*
I was going. To say the same thing, I have a close friend who was very close to them in the hardcore sence , I always heard of them from 98 , being local I also kept an eye on them , but only recently became a fan by Listening to Jamie’s podcast
Dude, I got goosebumps when he showed that show poster from the El n Gee. I miss the CTHC and punk scene of the late 90's/early 2000's.
I’ve heard a lot of mixed things but at the end of the day CTHC represent 💪 but more importantly we got Death Threat out of it
El N Gee was the place to be If you lived in New London area, lots of great memories I saw so many bands there and my buddies were in a band called ThinkTank who used to open for Hatebreed...
"This is now" is the song for me. So uplifting and gives me the strength. I'm in recovery, done many years in prison, made horrible choices but fight everyday for life. Great video. Love it, love Hatebreed, you're awesome
This has been my favorite video of yours, so far. Thanks for opening up a little bit and sharing the same message of self reliance and positivity as bands like this 👍🏻
I don’t normally like to be the “this band changed my life” type of guy. But I gotta say hatebreed had helped me out of some pretty dark times in my life. Their lyrics are that nice truthful smack across the face that you need when you start to feel sorry for yourself. I’m going through some more shit in my life and whenever I begin to think dark thoughts I just play hatebreed and it give me that extra shot of motivation that I need!
Been there brother. Stay strong.
We are built to endure what this world throws at us.
Absolutely same, man. I make a point to wait around (sometimes for hours) after every one of their shows I go to just to tell Jamie that he saved my life.
the only time i felt i was help from music was when i went to the sound of perseverance tour and live death were amazing.
i was blown away from living monstrosity and flattening of emotion
“Negative, self-loathing bullshit.” Dude, I can’t express enough how much the punk scene’s “ I’m not good enough for anything/let’s get drunk ‘til the end of time” dictated my life and also, my friends lives. God I wish I wasn’t such an idiot.
I swear I thought all I was good for was working in a factory and listening to punk. That was life....
What bands were you into?
@@Sergio-nb4hj Lots? And Im not going to go down the road of blaming bands for my early life attitude, but it did play a part. King Size Braces: Great Oi! bandit all their songs are about drinking and Id put it on and tell myself it was ok to get blackout drunk. A lot of punks do this. Leftover Crack, Choking Victim and other bands in that sub genre idolize smoking crack and shooting heroin, And don't tell me that its a joke or they are saying those things so kids DONT do drugs. Thats bullshit.
I wanted to be like them as a kid. I wanted to emulate my heroes. theres a parallel in hip hop/rap with the guns and cars an money. y'know?
Hah! I wasn’t even good enough to work at a factory 😁
@@KarryKarryKarry Awe! Bro! You're good enough to work in my warehouse. Remember that!
In some sort this self-loathing bullshit is the thing that killed the modern guitar music.
Here in Brazil 🇧🇷 there's a phrase that goes like this: "Rap saved my life" is even used on t-shirts but I say it's "Hardcore that saved my life" and this statement in this video shows that well. Thank you Priest Jasta and band!
In Brisbane in 2013, Jamie saw me try photobomb, then asked me if I wanted a photo with him when he saw me hanging around. Really appreciated that.
i really can't comprehend putting these guys in the same group as five finger donkey punch.....
@@xbfdx988 as a former fan of 5FDP... just... No.
@@xbfdx988 you must be correct because you ended your sentence with 'actually'.
I gotta say I enjoy the fact that you’re putting more of yourself into your videos lately. Hearing how you connect with Hatebreed is so much cooler than just talking through their timeline or something like lots of other videos out there.
This is your best video and i don't know how i missed, i love hatebreed got me far in life when i was sad and thinking to surrender! i never forget this lyrics from them
"Every drop of blood
Every bitter tear
Every bead of sweat
I live for this
Live for this, Live, Live
Live for this
Live for this, Live, Live
If you don't live for something you'll die for nothing."
This video single-handedly turned me onto Hatebreed, and I can't thank you enough for making it!
To give some context, I've been well aware of them for years, having heard and enjoyed "Destroy Everything" and "I Will Be Heard" years ago on Headbanger's Ball when I was in high school. However, I've never been much into hardcore music (I've always been more into heavier metal genres than the many flavors of core - with a few exceptions), and never gave them much forethought.
Now, years later, I'm working towards serious self-improvement, being a huge fan of Jordan Peterson and other empowering thinkers (including you), and have started to make strides to turn my life around. Once I saw this video in my recommended feed, I figured "hey, let's see what Finn has to say", and well... I think you hit it spot on. Hatebreed really is misunderstood genius (and I was one of the many who, for years, misunderstood them in the way you described at the beginning of the video).
Instantly after watching this video, I went on a Hatebreed binge, and I've been stuck on it for at least a few weeks now. I don't think I've ever found music as motivational and inspiring as what Jamey and co. have put out, and it's really helping me to fight my most recent bout of depression and power through some of the BS that I've put myself in from years of nihilism, apathy, and neglect.
If I had to pick any other music that I've heard that really lights a fire under my ass like Hatebreed's music does, I'd say it'd be Mudvayne's album 'Lost and Found'. But even then, it's a bit more angsty and emotional (for lack of a better term) than Hatebreed's music, and doesn't quite push me like Hatebreed does.
Thanks again, Finn!
First time I heard Hatebreed...”I will be heard” on the XXX soundtrack 🤘🤘
Same here! Immediately went and found a hatebreed album at the local record store
I've never knew that people looked down their noses at hatebreed.
I didn't know that either.
It's because the Gen Z snowflakes don't care for this heavy and intense stuff.

I discovered Hatebreed earlier this year when I was going through a really tough time, and I listen to them so much on Spotify that Spotify wrapped told me I was in the top 0.01% of their fans for the year, and I only started listening to them more than Midway through the year. I love this band!
I saw them in 2007 when they headlined the 2nd stage at Ozzfest. I didn't know them and they killed it. I've been a fan ever since. Great live band!!!!
This vid made my cry. Cause it was exactly what made me love hate breed, and attracted me to hardcore in the first place. Being the only black kid in the pit growing up made me realize when you said pure will cut real deep. It was overcoming the darkness.
Not to be creepy, but what part of the country are you from?
If you're anywhere near me I have a place or two you might be interested in that have a consistently diverse crowd for hardcore/punk/some metal shows. It bothers me that being uncomfortable like that can keep you from something you love, because we'd love to have you.
@@colemarie9262 it has nothing to do with diversity. I'm from NYC and loved the fact I was a outsider it gave me more respect in the pit. Plus growing up in a melting pot I'm use to it. I don't want to be in a place with everyone being my color its boring and not ground breaking. I broke ground by showing others that ppl like myself were just as hardcore and misunderstood as they were. I got out of it because of the elitist and ppl being like thinking I was not ok with being the only black kid there.
@@colemarie9262 if you look for old biohazard demos when they played with under cards like painmask and Gizmachi the black kid in those old cover photos was me. I never once felt out of place why the music I never was looked down on or pushed away by the contrary I was imbraced for it. This line split is what's destroying the metal and hardcore. If you love heavy music that should be what units us
Their message was great no doubt, but lets also give love to how insanely catchy their riffs were, especially on Satisfaction and Perseverance. Not only did the message uplift but those breakdowns and groove riffs always had me floored.
Dude I 100 percent agree w every word of what you said in this video...I am a recovering addict myself...and I also come from a highly dysfunctional family w a mother who suffers from narcissistic personality disorder...I always liked hatebreed but I never really listened to them until I was in rehab for the first time...looking down the barrel of today hit me hard...and that was it ...I was all in and they have helped me through alot of shit man...i dig thus channel alot...it has reignited my love for all things hardcore ...keep on keeping on
This actually gives me chills. Hatebreed is my favorite band because they helped me end my decade long meth addiction. This is now, supremacy of self, give wings to my triumph, defeatist, and live for this we’re my anthems and helped me find the strength in myself to do what needed done and now it’s been over seven years since I’ve twisted a bowl or hit a vein. Thank you for giving them the recognition they deserve and I’m glad they’re helping others as well.
A few of their songs really hit home for me and helped me as a teenager when I felt alone and hopeless. I grew up in a broken and toxic home and was sure i was going to be loser. Im almost 30 now, ended all of my self destructive habits, im engaged to an amazing woman, doing great at work and about to buy my first home.

Keep up the positivity, your vids always make my moods better
Some of their songs are very Stoic. They make up my entire Playlist for working out. I listen so much the lyrics pop into my head during different interactions throughout the day.
The Amity Affliction is another band that falls in line with that lyrical duality you talked about. That band has definitely played a huge part in giving me that extra little boost to get my head out of my ass and get my life together. I'm now 4 years clean and sober,have full custody of my kids and have and amazing woman in my life that has shown me the kind of love i never knew existed.
I remember seeing hatebreed by mistake the night they were filming perseverance. It literally changed my life.
This has become my favorite channel period... you're pretty deep, my guy.... I respect that and you make a lot of great points about punk culture
Thank you so much for your commentary on depression in your 30's. I'll be 32 in a month and it really is a tumultuous time in my life. This video made me reevaluate some of the songs that I adore and even made me think about the things that I write. Great message man. Thank you
It's like a therapist just shouting daily affirmations at you backed by blast beat drums and chugging guitar riffs.
I call it JastaCare
Hatebreed don't play blast beats lmao

have you considered getting a third Hatebreed tattoo?
What a proper commentary on one of the most influential bands in my life. Saw them at Chain Reaction in Anaheim 20 years at a secret show thing my friend took me too. Never ever been in energy like that.
Hatebreed embodies everything that’s important about hardcore. Stupid heavy riffs, awesome vocals, and the most important aspect, uplifting and inspiring lyrics.
Truth be told, they’re the closest thing to a perfect band I can think of.
Someone once said "hatebreed reads like eat pray love for dock workers" and I think about that comment at least once a day
That is.....so perfect
Hahahahaha 😂😂
That’s fire though I worked on a dock brutal makes you appreciate grandmas cookies n shit
This is the good shit I’m talking about! I gotta watch this a few more times because you’re speaking what I fell in love with about certain hardcore, punk, and hip-hop groups. Dark but hopeful! Stay up!
I've been hitting the gym for about a year now, trying to get back on track and making progress. Thank you, Hatebreed, for keeping me motivated.
This video is the perfect example of why I love your channel. I don't always share your taste, but I love the message you're bringing to the world through your content
I just need to quote Being As An Ocean's Vocalist "I learned that hardcore music is not for happy kids with perfect lives"
man, i wish BAAO back to their style like in their how we both wondrously perish album.
Finn "I Can Respect That " Mckenty at it with another dope breakdown.
This video couldn’t be more right! One of my absolute favorite bands. Helped get me through a lot of tough times. PERSEVERANCE is tattooed across my chest. Hatebreed for life
Im from Connecticut, New London CT. We used to have a banger club called the El N Gee club. Hatebreed played there all the time when coming up. In 2003, when the place was going under, they played a show and donated all the funds to keep it alive. I got love for them.
Love this band and couldn’t agree more. “No Halos For The Heartless” has some of my all time favorite lyrics
When I listen to “To The Threshold,” I feel like crying. It is cathartic. It is a well needed emotional release. A lot of pain is behind those lyrics, even if the message is positive. It really hits below the surface.
bro, you the man, every time i see your videos it takes me back to when i was in high school. all them shows and good time in the name of HC. thanks for the reminder.
I just heard the opening lines of Perseverance, and I almost started bawling. And I haven’t cried in years. It describes exactly what I am going through, how I feel and the way I feel it.
Jasta's like the Hardcore version of James Brown. He's the hardest working man in Hardcore. Huge respect for that guy.
I've heard some people think Hatebreed is a racist white supremacy band. Just goes to show that Hatebreed just gets stereotyped by their name and second hand stories. Oh and I've seen Jamey stop shows multiple times because of fights. He really does try and keep the crowd safe.
I think it is because of the band name. I guess some weirdos immeditaly believe that they would be a nazi band
There was a news story about white supremacy bands and they placed hatebreed in the report with doing any actual research. Hatebreed threatened legal action and the news story was retracted.
Blame their incredibly bad logo and branding
@@blahblahblah2243 it still does not justify to brand them as nazis for no reason. That is a disgusting insult
just being white makes you a white supremacist by default according to certain people out there
Hardcore kid, now hardcore adult/dad, and grew up in the scene in CT in the late 90s. Satisfaction Is The Death of Desire single handedly opened the door for my generation of kids who had no idea what hardcore was, and Hatebreed brought sooooooo many bands through that where going from NY to boston. It was definitely the thing for a while to shit on them, but I think the older the scene got the more people recognized how damn grateful we should be for them. I know for me, I wasn't getting to American Nightmare or Verse without Hatebreed first.
Hatebreed had huge impact in getting me into Hardcore/Extreme Metal as a kid. In recent years however I did not listen to them as much as I used to.
But two days ago I saw them live at the Rock am Ring Festival here in Germany and they were absolutely amazing. I loved every second of the show and my voice was totally gone after they left the stage. So now I just have to learn everything about them and found this great video of yours! Thank you for that! All the best to you from Germany🤘🏻
I remember seeing hatebreed live for the first time. My brother in law always played hatebreed in the car and told me the sound the exact same live. so when I saw em live, I turned my back to the stage closed my eyes. and it felt like cruizin on the backseat of my brother in laws car. he was so fucking right.
Betrayed By Life is one of my all time "I'm gonna get through this shit" songs. I love this video great work as always!
Back when they actually kicked ass.
Your screen name is legendary, btw.
@@voiceofreason1208 thank you thank you v much or I guess I should say thank you fuck you bye 😉
I went to a hatebreed show in 1997 or 98 in Danbury Ct that was the most ridiculous display of violence that I’ve ever seen. At one point the band members stopped playing their instruments and jumped into the crowd and started fighting the bouncers. The whole place turned into a full scale riot like a scene out of roadhouse. There were beer bottles smashing all over the place, windows getting knocked out, doors to the venue being smashed down, I saw a guy lift up the sound board and smash it on the ground. The bouncers that weren’t able to flee were covered in blood. They had to call in the riot squad and they arrived holding the shields. That’s the craziest show I’ve ever been to and during the 90’s at a hatebreed show you always felt like you were a second away from something like that happening
Sounds about right
Thank you for making this. I’m glad you’re saying something that definitely needs to be said. Hatebreed has absolutely helped save my life multiple times. Back in the 90s my old band was lucky enough to share the stage with them several times. Jamey is a special dude and always has been one of the most solid people I’ve ever known. His words are as sincere as it gets in music, and I have nothing but respect for the fact that instead of romanticizing pain & emotional suffering, he chose to be resolute. I can’t imagine how many people were in a bad way and spiraling down, and his words made a difference. That’s part of why music is the best part of life….and you can’t quantify just how powerful it can be.
So much heart in this video - genuinely one of your best and definitely one of my favourites. Amazing work as always 💪🏼
I remember the first song of Hatebreed that I listen to was “I will be heard” and after that... one thing that I can say about Hatebreed, their lyrics are “life anthems” to me... And as an anecdote, when they performed here in Ecuador, their show was brutal, I remember that I couldn’t hold the stering wheel in the way back home... LOL
This band possibly saved my life. I discovered them during a really dark time and their music motivated me. I relate to what you said about thinking you couldn’t pull yourself out of what gotten yourself into. Great video
