Teenage Hate

Teenage Hate is the debut studio album by the American garage punk band, the Reatards. It was released in 1998 via Goner Records. It features elements from various music genres, such as garage rock, punk rock, southern rock, power pop, blues and rockabilly. The album utilizes a raw lo-fi sound, which makes it sound like "it was recorded on a telephone", juxtaposing hooks and choruses with highly dissonant guitars and screaming, which were compared to those of Black Francis of Pixies.

Goner reissued Teenage Hate on May 17, 2011, a year after Jay Reatard's death. The posthumous release included two rare recordings, The Reatards Cassette and Fuck Elvis Here's the Reatards Cassette, which have been previously released on only cassette format. These were included in the bonus disc. The reissue, which includes covers of artists such as the Beatles, Buddy Holly, Fear, Lil' Bunnies, the Litter, and Dead Boys, received critical acclaim.
