Limited to 300 copies. Everyone who ever has been listening to the last HATEFUL album "Killbowie Road" should ask themselves: How are the guys able to do anything better ever? But HATEFUL did. Right at the beginning of their new record they clarify: HATEFUL will tread the legacy of THE CLASH better than any other band around. Perfect songwriting meets great sing-a-long parts, but the main virtue which sets HATEFUL apart from most bands of today is: They have heart and soul, and they are able to transport that in their songs. Not a single tone is played without dedication, singer Alex perfectly harmonizes with his band mates (on drums: Kev from the legendary DISTORTED TRUTH), words can't describe their perfection. Punk plus Rock N' Roll or Rock N' Roll plus Punk, catchy and melodic, engaged and down-to-earth. Men in their fourties who sing about life and the downfall of the working class are (in my mind) much more trustable as if they'd sing about their "next streetfight" or stuff like that. Joe Strummer would be proud. For anyone who is into: THE CLASH, STIFF LITTLE FINGERS, SLADE, early THE BUSINESS, COCK SPARRER, SHAM 69, THE RUTS, BILLY BRAGG
