Comedian Ian Fidance has revealed that Hatebreed is not only working on their ninth studio album but also re-recording their landmark 1996 EP Under The Knife.

The news surfaced during a recently shared episode of the Bein' Ian With Jordan Podcast, where Fidance detailed a recent trip to the studio with Jamey Jasta and Larry Dwyer Jr., who were present for the sessions.

As for Under The Knife, the EP that helped cement Hatebreed's reputation for metallic hardcore fury in the mid-'90s, Fidance confirmed the band are giving it a full overhaul.

He noted that his participation was also filmed, hinting that behind-the-scenes footage or a studio documentary could accompany the eventual release.
