I don't like HATE quite as much as THE GREAT EASTERN -- it removes a bit of
The Velvet Underground gone orchestral feeling that occured on a few songs
and while the strings are still there, there aren't as many breathtaking
moments. That being said, they really write and play with confidence and
have taken to this direction. Not being as good as THE GREAT EASTERN isn't
really a slight and HATE is a fine follow up. And Dave Fridmann is
twiddling the knobs again.
