Earlier this month, Hatebreed revealed their plan to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Hatebreed in 2019. Today (28th), the group has officially announced their 25th Anniversary tour. The first leg of the trek has been revealed as it will feature support from Obituary, Cro-Mags, Terror and Fit for an Autopsy. 
 
Frontman Jamey Jasta expressed his excitement:
“I can’t believe it’s been 25 years already. We’re excited to bring out this massive tour package with some of our favorite bands. Every band on this bill is a headliner in their own right. The show will be run festival-style with bands you don’t want to miss playing early. Activate the pit!”
Guitarist Frank Novinec added:
“Looking forward to this one — 25 years of Hatebreed, celebrated with not only friends, but a couple bands who influenced us so much that we covered their songs on For the Lions. Come celebrate the entire catalog with us!” 
drummer Matt Byrne commented:

“All killer, no filler here. This April will be a sick tour for Hatebreed. Celebrating 25 years is a big accomplishment for any band. But it’s that much sweeter when you’re doing it with some of your favorite bands in tow. We love Obituary so much that we covered them on our For the Lions record. We love Cro-Mags so much that we covered them on our For the Lions record. We love Terror and Fit For An Autopsy so much that… 😉 See you all in April!”
