 5 most read reviews | | | | | | I Hate Kate - 2 track review I Hate Kate – 2 track promo ‘I Hate Kate’ are an alternative rock group from Huntington Beach, California and they are certainly making an impression around the world with their hit ‘It’s Always Better’. This is a catchy, upbeat number which will get your foot tapping and no doubt put a smile on your face. This song is very radio friendly and it surprises me that I have yet to hear it on mainstream radio. The second song on this 2 track release is entitled ‘Story I can’t write’ and is another pop-rock number, which has slightly softer aspects in places and echoes of ‘The Killers’ running through it, although I prefer the overall sound of this band. I have to say, this band are not doing anything that will make you jump up and scream WOW, but their music has widespread appeal and their album ‘Embrace The Curse’ will most probably be very successful globally. I thought it best to take a look at their MySpace page, to see if any other songs were available and I’m glad I did! ‘Bed of black roses’ has a much rockier feel to it and I personally prefer this sound, a great track and after hearing this song it makes me wonder which direction this band will ultimately find themselves traveling in – pop or rock? To round off, this band are worth a listen for sure, check out their MySpace link below and decide for yourself.
