The frontman of Connecticut metalcore band Hatebreed has a new side hustle – selling pasta.

Elsewhere, Jasta’s Grammy-nominated band have been working on new music. The group’s eighth studio album, ‘Weight Of The False Self’, was originally slated to drop on May 29 but has been delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
‘Weight Of The False Self’ is the follow-up to ‘The Concrete Confessional’, which was released in 2016.
