Founding HATEBREED bassist Chris Beattie has confirmed his departure from the band.
The 49-year-old musician, who has been pursuing a career in real estate, addressed his status with HATEBREED just days after the group announced SHADOWS FALL guitarist Matt Bachand would play bass for the Connecticut-based hardcore/metal act "for the foreseeable future."
Earlier today, Beattie shared the following statement on his Instagram: "I just want to take the time to let everyone know that I am doing just fine and I sincerely appreciate everyone who has reached out.
"I was under the impression a joint announcement would be agreed upon in advance, but since that was not the case I wanted to address your concerns in my own post.
"At this time I am unable to discuss the specifics surrounding my departure from HATEBREED on November 13, 2024. However, I want to clarify that the decision to leave the band was not mine and that my departure was uncalled for and based on misleading and wrongful statements that will be subject to future actions."
HATEBREED celebrated its 30th anniversary with a North American tour last fall. The trek kicked off on September 26, 2024 in Portland, Maine and concluded on October 27, 2024 in Norfolk, Virginia. Support on the tour came from CARCASS, HARMS WAY and CRYPTA.
