Hate Made Me... they sound like angry guys right form the word go and this sure as hell shows in the music. Raw riffs, demonic like vocals, fast paced druming and bass overtones, this is 8 Foot Sativa my friends and they are here to prove something to the world. This being there debut album not alot can be expected, but these fellas deliver quite a punch. This can be seen quite easily in the title track "Hate Made Me". The intro blows the listner away with some seirous double kick blasting from the drums and bass going all out. Of course the guitar can't be left out. There are some more "relaxed" moments through out the title track where the double bass is released in spurts along with the bass while the guitar keeps a steady pace, instrumentally these boys seem to be working flat out. The vocals of course fit the type of music being played and could not possibly imagine it any other way. Generally most of the songs on the album have the same idea and theme as Hate Made Me and almost sound the same but not at the same time. The band has enough musical talent to show some diversity with in their own music which in time is sure to develop into there own unique style all together, I know I sure as hell wanna hear some more stuff like "Believer" with some screaming and an awsome demonic type voice for the vrs. Sadly every album has at least one downside and Hate Made Me is no exception. Lyrically the album is a tad bit repetiative and at times almost childlike, fortunatlt the band shows a fair bit of maturity with songs such as "It's all So Real" and "Cocktease" although both songs have the same theme which is a break from "Come on satan give us another death!". Production could have been better as well, the sound is a tad bit scrappy especially drumming wise its to static. Over-all 8 Foot Sativa are a band that offer a solid preformance with "Hate Made Me" its an album that out lives its due by date, and is always interesting to listin to the next time around. These boys can only keep improving as they mature and in time will offer so much more then just "SATAN!" as so many other sucsesful metal bands out these days do.
