Hate Eternal - King of All Kings - 25th Anniversary

Death metal rarely gets more blood-curdling than Hate Eternal. Hailing from the subgenre's mecca of Florida, they made themselves kingpins of their scene at the turn of the millennium, building a legacy that persists to this day. As they set their eyes on following up their corrosive 1999 debut Conquering The Throne, they created for the 2002 follow-up a blackly fantastical narrative that offered a hellish twist on time-honoured fables of kings and gods. Coursing with adrenaline and dread, the bandcrafted a truly relentless body of work, thick with abyss-scraping gutturals, slamming riffs and drums that blast at practically supersonic speed. 25 years since original release, it's time for their unparalleled brutality to be reaffirmed.
