180g audiophile LPThough Leonard Cohen had already established himself as the douen of doom with his first two albums, his third V'Songs of Love and HateV' finds him kicking off the 1970s with the sharpest rendition of the '60s peace-and-love/flower-power ethic the world had yet seen from the 'sensitive troubadour' corner of the music map. Though it's not really a concept album V'Songs of Love and HateV' feels like a guided tour through one man's scarred love life.The emotional degradation of 'Avalanche,' the suicidal frenzy of 'Dress Rehearsal Rag' and the bitter regret of 'Last Year's Man' all sound like stops on the same ill-fated journeu.Possibly Cohen's finest album, Love and Hate would stand as a monument to explorers of the musical Dark Side for decades to come.
