Background notes

Archive material and source history

Hate Dept formed in London in the early 1990s, with Mick Harris on vocals after his time in Napalm Death. They put out their first album, 'Mental Devastation,' in 1991. The music was built around heavy electronic beats and distorted textures, with lyrics that leaned into darker themes.

Their songs like 'Anger Impulse' and 'Coming Down' carried that aggressive, industrial-edged sound forward. The band's lineup shifted over time, with people like Sean Rickard on keyboards and Bob Dwyer on drums coming through. They kept releasing albums, including 'Mass Grave' and 'Death Grip,' working in elements of techno and noise along the way.
