Hatriot, the bay area thrashers led by former Exodus frontman Steve "Zetro" Souza, will enter the studio in September to begin recording its sophomore album, Dawn Of The New Centurion, for a February 2014 release via Massacre Records.

The follow-up to 2013's Heroes Of Origin will once again be helmed by producer producer Juan Urteaga, who has previously worked with Machine Head, Exodus and Testament, among others.

Steve Souza comments: "Over the past year, hatriot has grown tighter as a band, and the songs on the new record will reflect that. The songs are longer and more melodic, while keeping the classic thrash metal feel that we are known for. Heroes Of Origin was our Kill 'Em All, and Dawn Of The New Centurion is our Ride The Lightning."
