Vinyl LP pressing. Hater is the Seattle-grown sound created by Ben Shepherd and Matt Cameron of Soundgarden, along with John McBain of Monster Magnet, John Waterman, and Brian Wood. Recorded in 1992 - after Soundgarden wrapped their Badmotorfinger tour but before pre-production started for Superunknown - Matt and Ben decided to make an album with their friends under the name Hater. Unlike Soundgarden, Hater had more garage and classic rock influence.
