I Hate Kate is an alternative rockband from Huntington Beach, California. The band was founded by former Zebrahead guitarist/vocalist Justin Mauriello in November, 2004, to explore his musical options. The first songs that were available for listening on their website were 'Bed of Black Roses,' 'Always Something,' and 'Out of My Head.' Over time, more songs were available for download from the band's website, or for listening to on the band's Myspace page. The band released its first EP in 2006 titled "Act One". The song "Bed of Black Roses" and more recently, "Always Something" have been singled out by the band on their Myspace page as the song to request from local radio stations. The band's new album, titled "Embrace The Curse," featuring several re-recordings from Act One, will be released on 25 April through In-n-Out Records in Japan, and will be released in America on 13 April.
