Vinyl reissue of The Delgados 2002 album which originally came out via Mantra Recordings/Beggars Banquet. Hate was The Delgados fourth studio album and the band toured extensively in North America around the release. In June 2022 the band announced they were reforming. “When we started The Delgados in 1994, it instantly felt effortless and simple. There was a synergy and a chemistry. Four people pulling in different directions, but towards the same destination. Two of us couldn’t play very well and two couldn’t play at all but that unlearned sensitivity was our guide. Fast forward 25 or so years – the band has been split up for 15 of them – and we’re driving to Stuart Braithwaite’s wedding. We’ve spent hardly any time with each other for over a decade and like before it’s effortless, simple… and the thought occurs that it might be good to play together once again.”
