Hatebreed, a Connecticut hardcore institution, have a new label home for their next album, due to drop in January 2013.

The band has signed to Razor & Tie in North America, while Nuclear Blast will handle Hatebreed’s releases in European territories.

Hatebreed have already finished their new studio album  – their sixth — which will see release in early winter, just in time to cure the January doldrums. It follows 2009′s self-titled release and the ‘For the Lions’ covers album, which also landed in 2009. Both of those records were issued via eOne.

Frontman Jamey Jasta commented on the signing, saying, “We’re really excited to be working with such great people at both Razor & Tie and Nuclear Blast. We’ve made an awesome album and we’re chomping at the bit to get it out and hit the road. Global domination begins now.”

The new album was co-produced by Hatebreed, Zeuss (who has worked with everyone from Suicide Silence to Shadows Fall) and Josh Wilbur (Lamb of God, Avenged Sevenfold).

Hatebreed plan to support the album with plenty of touring, including a stint on Lamb of God’s upcoming fall trek.
