It doesn't get darker than this. Though Leonard Cohen had already established himself as the doyen of doom with his first two albums, his third, SONGS OF LOVE AND HATE, finds him kicking off the 1970s with the sharpest repudiation of the '60s peace and love flower power ethic the world had yet seenfrom the "sensitive troubadour" corner of the music map. Though it's not really a "concept album", SONGS OF LOVE AND HATE feels like a guided tour through one man's battle scarredlove life. The utter emotional degradation of "Avalanche", the suicidal frenzy of "Dress Rehearsal Rag", and the bitterregret of "Last Year's Man" all sound like stops on the same ill fated journey. The arrangements are wisely based around Cohen's world weary voice and hypnotic acoustic guitar patterns, with occasional orchestrations rising like dark clouds in the background. Possibly Cohen's finest album, LOVE ANDHATE would stand as a monument to explorers of the musical Dark Side for decades to come such as Nick Cave, who memorably covered "Avalanche"and to anyone nursing a bitter, broken heart.
