H.A.T.E (Hatred. And. Termination. Everything) is Florida-based death metal band Encephalitic Punishment's fifth album, released on September 9th 1996. It is their second with vocalist Omar Espanzo and rhythm gutiarist Kirk Newman, and also the last with Espanzo and Newman. After the mixed reception of its predecessor, 1994's A New Era of Death, the band set about returning to a familiar sound and improving songwriting. Significant changes, or rather returns, are more death/technical death metal elements, Omar Espanzo uses growled vocals instead of the singing technique on A New Era and the guitars and drums return to their death metal roots.
