Hate Field

Launching from his career in Odious, Egypt’s most well-known oriental black metal band, Alfi Hayati moved on from bass with his side project, Hate Field. It’s a unique concept and drive since he has taken all compositional tasks upon himself into the arena of industrial metal. This is what he has to say on the project:

“Hate Field is a totally different story. It was the outcome of a huge mess in my life after the break-up of a long relationship. I had lots of negative energy. Loads of feelings and emotions and I had to get it out or explode so I chose to capture it all in music. I wanted to be totally free to get out all that I felt. I recorded all the music, all the vocals and lyrics, and I’m really satisfied with it. I’m expecting good feedback from Hate Field.”

With a growing fan-base in Egypt and abroad in the EU and US, his much anticipated release, “Scary Fairy Tale,” will surely rock the underground music scene. News of the signing with Domestic Genocide Records has reached as far as JorZine and the album release date with a complete track listing has been posted on Spirit of Metal.

“Scary Fairy Tale” is expected to be released on January 26, 2012.

  • Alfi Hayati: Egypt’s Godfather (Blood or Love - Interview)

  • Many people still have this perspective that metal music and musicians are satanic, violent and weird. It's not as bad as before for sure, but sure thing this ain't a cool atmosphere for playing this music. It's like swimming against the current; you must be strong enough to continue or just get bored of whatever people think of your music and how they relate it to stupid stereotypes that they really want to believe to be true.

  • Hate Field - Scary Fairy Tales [Review] (Metality)

  • “Scary Fairy Tale” came well-put and musically mature; riffing, time signatures, transitions, and the fair touch of electronics came all well-organized and coherent, which sustained and consolidated the album’s musical structure. Riffs on “Scary Fairy Tale” are mostly groovy and mid-tempo, whereas there are some moments on the album that came melodic and others that displayed mastery that is not too common between musicians who play bass guitar as their main instrument.
