Swedish sleaze and punk influenced metal band SISTER have just released the artwork and tracklisting for their new album Hated, due out June 7th via Metal Blade Records. The first single also happens to be the title track of the album.

A teaser trailer for the album can be seen below:

The band comment on the album: "The first single from the album is the title track Hated. It's a song about when people close to you fuck things over for you, making your life miserable till the degree that you can't take it anymore. You get so pissed and frustrated that you start to hate them and want them to hate you too. You want them to despise you and you use that anger as fuel to pull yourself back up. Feed you till you're up on the top again. We've also had a lot of people that have worked against us over the years and this track and album title is kind of a statement as well. A big fuck you to those people. So it's both the title track and the anthem of the album.

It was a song that took form real quickly and pretty much put together in one evening in the rehearsal. It just came natural and it felt right to have a heavier, low tempo song after some time of writing a lot of fast maybe more punk feeling songs. Though, this one still has the punk edge like all our work of course."

Cover art for Hated was created by Kim Oktavia who is an artist/tattoo artist in Stockholm, Sweden and photographer Axel Engström, also from Stockholm, Sweden. The cover artwork can be seen below:
