HATE is undoubtedly one of the best extreme metal acts coming from eastern Europe that emerged in the nineties. Founded in 1990 by ATF Sinner (guitar, vocal), the group has had a great influence on forming what is now called ..Polish Death Metal phenomenon... Their three demos: ..Abhorrence.. 1992, ..Evil Art..1994 and ..Unwritten Law.. 1995 established HATE as one of the most influential acts on the Polish metal scene. In 1996 the band released the first album ..Daemon Qui Fecit Terram.. through a domestic label Loud Out Records.Two years later came out the second lp. from the group entitled ..Lord Is Avenger.. and shortly after that a mini lp. ..Victims.. was released on Metal Mind Prods. It was high time for HATE to make it to the West which finally happened in the year 2000 when the group signed a deal to American label Dwell Records. A Slayer..s cover song ..Postmortem.. done by HATE appeared on Dwell..s compilation ..Gateways To Hell vol 2... Several months later the band relesed their full-length western debut entitled ..Holy Dead Trinity.. (World War III) that contained music from ..Lord Is Avenger.. and ..Victims... The material got mostly rave reviews in the press and was welcomed among Amarican metalheads. Two years later HATE recorded their second album for World War III - ..Cain..s Way.., which strengthened their position on American market. Although both albums were well known in the US, they never had a good distribution elsewhere being just numbers in Blackened Rec..s catalogue. In 2003 HATE signed a record deal to French-based label Listenable Records which resulted in releasing a new opus ..Awakening of The Liar.. which was sort of breakthrough album in the band..s career. Recorgnized as one of the best examples of classical death metal with some modern flair, the material gained the band a strong fanbase, this time not only in the US. HATE toured European continent in February 2005 in company of Decapitated, Crionics and Dies Irae. In December 2005 a new album ..Anaclasis- A haunting Gospel of Malice & Hatred.. was released on Listenable Records again and this time it was not a traditional death metal any more. The band..s style has undergone some important changes; industrial samples that were once just an addition to the overall brutal death metal, now became an integral part of the music. ..Anaclasis.. has been hailed as one of the greatest combinations of death/black metal with industrial and ambient influences; the album has got enthusiastic reviews in most metal media and established HATE as one of the genre..s innovators. In May 2006 HATE toured Europe once again with Carpathian Forest and Keep Of Kalessin and performed on Party.San Open Air Festival in July 2006. In February 2007 the band is to tour Europe once more in company of Decapitated and appear on most Summer festivals.
