When it comes to mixing Hardcore and Heavy Metal, there are very few people that can make it work as successfully as Jamey Jasta has for the last decade. Not only is Jasta the lead singer of Hatebreed, Kingdom Of Sorrow and Jasta, but he is also one hell on an enterpreneur. Currently, Jasta runs his own indie record label called Stillborn Records, and his own clothing company called Hatewear Inc. On the other hand, when it comes to mixing Heavy Metal and Comedy, there are very few people that can blend them together as dangerously as Don Jamieson and Jim Florentine do. Not only are they co-hosts of VH1 Classic's That Metal Show along with Eddie Trunk, but they are also two of the most controversial comics in the business.
Recently, Jim Florentine and Don Jamieson interviewed Jamey Jasta backstage right after Hatebreed took over the Starland, Ballroom in Sayreville, New Jersey for the "Share the Welt Tour", which also features Five Finger Death Punch and All That Remains. During the interview Jasta discusses the importance of bands branching out in order to gain new fans, and how the state of the music industry has affected him. So listen up!
