Hatesphere

小簡介
Hatesphere并不是在“時髦”的潮流中誕生出的一支新晉Nu-Thrash 樂隊，盡管他們的音樂聽上去頗具“時尚”的味道。樂隊從1993年組建至今，他們的風格也隨著時間的推移而逐漸轉(zhuǎn)變著?？傮w來講，Hatesphere的音樂是以傳統(tǒng)Thrash Metal作為根基，以新派的嘶吼式唱法作為主導唱腔，同時將瑞典哥德堡式的吉他solo加以精煉簡化，并運用迅猛強悍的鼓的演奏作為整體鋪墊的。樂隊擁有著自己穩(wěn)定的步伐，從2001年開始，他們在每一年都有新專輯或EP推出。而在2005年中，樂手們的創(chuàng)作力更是異常豐富，一張EP與一張專輯的成功發(fā)行令人滿意，可見，Hatesphere已經(jīng)越來越成為丹麥金屬界最具代表性的樂隊之一。丹麥另一支金屬核樂隊Raunchy的鼓手Morten Toft Hansen曾在2000年至2003年效力于Hatesphere。
Denmark's Hatesphere is one of a handful of bands reigniting the flame of '80s speed metal by way of the so-called Scandinavian neo-thrash movement (spearheaded by the likes of Arch Enemy and the Haunted). Started as Cauterized in 1993 by Danish high-school chums Claus Nielsen (vocals), Peter Lyse Hansen (guitar), Frantz Dhin (guitar), and Jesper Moesgaard (drums), the group underwent various transformations (quickly adopting the new moniker of Necrosis and continually exchanging personnel) over the ensuing decade, issuing several heavily traded demos along the way.
Finally stabilizing into the lineup of Hansen, Moesgaard, vocalist Jacob Bredahl, guitarist Ziggy, and bassist Mikael Ehlert Hansen, the newly renamed Hatesphere found a home with Italy's Scarlet Records for the release of their eponymous debut album in 2000, and 2002's Bloodred Hatred. The latter saw the replacement of Moesgaard with new drummer Morten Toft Hansen (that's right, another Hansen), but otherwise held steady in the band's part trash, part death metal, and part neo-thrash hybrid style, gaining them a small following along the way. But there were more changes ahead for Hatesphere, who, after replacing Ziggy with guitarist Henrik Jacobsen and welcoming yet another new drummer in Anders Gylden?hr, managed only an EP named Something Old, Something New in 2003. They returned to full force in 2004, however, unleashing their potent third album, Ballet of the Brute, in North America through famed metal indie Nuclear Blast Records.
