"Jade and I have been working together for the last six months or so and his incredible skill and dedication to extreme drumming and groove has made him the perfect drummer for Hate Eternal."

Born in Montreal in Canada, Jade Simonetto had posted videos of himself playing Hate Eternal songs that peaked the interest of Eric Rutan, who was looking for a replacement for Derek Roddy who had just left the band.

Eric flew Jade down to his studios in Florida to jam the tunes and possibly some new material for their upcoming album for Metalblade Records.

Hate Eternal will record and mix between August and October with an early 2008 release on Metal Blade Records.
