US / THEM: HATED share live in studio video for "Silk" from Death Effects album, out now on Lost Future Records

“Featuring thick, chunky rhythms buffeted by sharp yet heavy guitar work and abyssal vocal stylings... effectively serves as a shot across the bow to other bands out there. It’s effectively the band putting their hand on the throat of the scene, letting everyone know they’re here and ready to fuck some shit up." -- Metal Sucks

"HATED refuse to play by anyones rules but their own... Welding suffocating heaviness to a twisted sense of groove." -- Metal Epidemic

“Comes in with a f#*king vengeance! The vocals feel like acid searing down my ear canals, the percussion is like an angelic army finally coming down to lay waste to the false prophets, and the riffs feel like red-hot lasers shooting out of my eyes. It’s been a while since I heard a song as deliciously violent as HATED’s ‘Seven.’” — CvltNation

Denver, CO band HATED share an impressively tight live-in-studio video for their song "Silk" from their recently released full length debut on Lost Future Records. The video was shot and audio tracked live at the legendary Blasting Room Studio (owned/founded by Descendents/Black Flag drummer Bill Stevenson.) Metal Epidemic premiered the video earlier HERE.

HATED is a Denver-based Nu-Deathcore band delivering relentless riffs, suffocating atmosphere, and raw, unfiltered emotion. Balancing cinematic heaviness with personal storytelling, the band confronts mental health struggles head-on through honest, brutal songwriting.

Formed in 2018 as a studio project between vocalist Jordan Taylor and guitarist/producer Colton Krohn, HATED quickly evolved into a full band after listeners connected with the raw honesty of their first two EPs, None Are Equal and 9411.

Since 2023, HATED has built a reputation for chaotic, high-energy live shows across the Rocky Mountain region — complete with inflatable swords, pillow fights, and mosh pit limbo contests. But it’s not about gimmicks. It’s about creating a space for catharsis and connection through sound and community.

Death Effects brings focus to the very real obstacles brought on by living a life of shame and regret, begging for common decency from the ones closest to you. It acknowledges the feelings of self loathing and despair that plague someone with extreme depression. From beginning to end, the album is set in the mood of “found footage” on a cassette tape, one that tells the story of a nameless person that has suffered more than they can bear.

Death Effects is available on Limited Edition LP and download, released on August 22, 2025 via Lost Future Records. Orders are available HERE.
