Hatebreed first-ever live DVD is coming

Hatebreed will release their first live DVD, entitled “Live Dominance”, on September 2 via Koch. The main DVD concert shoot took place at Harpo’s in Detroit on Saturday, March 29, 2008 in front of a sold-out crowd.

Directed by Kevin Custer, the DVD will also feature a collection of recent live shows from various tour stops in Germany, Philadelphia, New York City and New Haven.

Hatebreed enlisted Vinnie Paul Abbott to produce, document and record the band’s May 27, 2008 concert in Dallas, Texas at the Palladium Ballroom. The resultant recording will be released as the live album, “Live in Dallas”, due in early 2009. An all-covers album entitled “For the Lions” — featuring Hatebreed’s renditions of songs by Misfits, Metallica, Judge, Cro-Mags, D.R.I., Negative Approach, Agnostic Front, Madball, Sheer Terror and Obituary, among others — is expected late October.

Dimmu Borgir to release new DVD

Resuming activity after a 2-year hiatus, this year’s five-band Blackest Of The Black tour package – which includes headliners Danzig, Norway’s Dimmu Borgir, Moonspell, Winds Of Plague, and Skeletonwitch – will launch a 24-show trek on October 9th in Miami Beach, Florida and play its wrap-up show on November 10th in San Francisco, California.

Dimmu Borgir founding member/guitarist Silenoz checks in from his native land with the following:

“Let there be no secrecy around the fact that we’re really looking forward to the Blackest of The Black tour, finally joining forces with Danzig! To get the chance to share the stage with one of the most influential icons in metal and rock history, Glenn Danzig, is of course something we’re very proud of! Combined with the other bands, this will be a night to remember - if you’re into dark and heavy music, that is. We actually take it for granted that you will be there! This will also be a great opportunity for us to promote our new DVD coming out in October, appropriately entitled ‘The Invaluable Darkness’!”
