HATESPHERE – New Update Posted

“So, had our last rehearsal before heading on a small run with Crowbar next week. Kasper and Jimmy are missing in the picture, Jimmy’s in the ambulance behind us, and Kasper is picking up Jimmy’s insulin at our rehearsal space. Don’t worry, Jimmy’s ok… for now #happytimes #diabetes #dramaqueen #thatswhatgoodfriendsdo #savingjimmyonceagain #anotherdayattheoffice”



Formed in Arhus Denmark by guitarist Peter “Pepe” Hansen in 2000, HateSphere quickly overpowered the Danish metal scene, while concurrently setting an immeasurable new standard for thrash metal domestically and abroad. HateSphere’s first three albums, HateSphere, Bloodred Hatred, and Ballet Of The Brute upgraded the band’s status from local sensation to Europe’s hottest up and coming thrash quintet. Under the leadership of Scarlet Records, HateSphere toured Europe with The Haunted in 2003 and again with Exodus in 2004, while also turning heads at Wacken Open Air, With Full Force, and Hellfest Festivals.

In 2005, HateSphere inked a deal with SPV Records and assembled a production team of established Danish producers; including Tommy Hansen, Jacob Hansen, and Tue Madsen. The Sickness Within was released in September of that same year; receiving raving reviews from the worldwide metal media. The pure ferocity, complexity, and brutal grooves enshrined in the album, landed HateSphere on multiple tours of Europe with Kreator, Morbid Angel, Soilwork Dark Tranquillity, and Chimaira. In addition to headlining shows in support of The Sickness Within, the band made appearances at Wacken Open Air, Metal Camp, and Roskilde Festival.

HateSphere continued to increase its’ profile on an international level by touring Japan, co-headlining the UK with Gojira, and headlining the first edition of The Danish Dynamite tour with Raunchy and Volbeat: marking the first ever international tour dedicated to showcasing Denmark’s most talented metal bands. HateSphere again made history by being the first Danish band to tour China. Following the 2007 release of Serpent Smiles And Killer Eyes, HateSphere yet again hit the road headlining Europe with Aborted and Dagoba, which was followed by successful performances at Wacken Open Air and Roskilde Festivals and a support tour of Poland with Behemoth in September.
Serpent Smiles And Killer Eyes also shot up to position 26 on the Danish National Music Charts: an unprecedented achievement.
