Hater is the debut studio album by the American rock band Hater.[3][4][5] It was released in 1993 on A&M Records.[6]
The album was recorded live in five days, in a Seattle studio.[8] Most of the material was written by Ben Shepherd, who switched from bass to guitar for the album.[9]
Critical reception
The Stranger called the album "a concise ripper that revitalizes garage rock without descending into kitsch."[10] Trouser Press called it "trivial and self-indulgent, unreleasable were it not for the stature of the participants."[11]
