As it happens, I loved Kate from the very first ("Love and Anger").  But I
often find that I will hate an album or group the first time I hear it and
it grows to be my very favorite, while I love groups immediately and hate
them later.  Examples are the Cure (but they're not my favorite, I just like
them) and Nine Inch Nails (I'm *so* sick of Pretty Hate Machine),
respectively.
