"Irresponsible Hate Anthem" is the first track on the 1996 release Antichrist Superstar. The song attracted attention due to the liner notes of Antichrist Superstar, which state that [Irresponsible Hate Anthem was recorded live on February 14, 1997], despite the fact that the album was released on October 8, 1996 and is a studio recording.
As the album is cyclical, with both opening and closing seconds including the distorted phrase "When you are suffering, know that I have betrayed you," when the album is placed on loop, the pacing between these sentences on "Irresponsible Hate Anthem" matches that of the additional distorted recitation found in the preceding, ninety-ninth track. "Irresponsible Hate Anthem" also contains an additional opening chant, "And all the children sing: 'We hate love, we love hate.'"

When asked by Guitar World about Zim Zum, who had recently joined the band, Marilyn Manson claimed "He plays the first track on the album, which is a live track. It hasn't really been recorded yet," in reference to "Irresponsible Hate Anthem," with Twiggy Ramirez adding, "We figured out time travel." Manson goes on to explain, "Our keyboardist uses his computer with a lot of old Hebrew Kabbalism and numerology, complicated equations that only he understands. But that, combined with extreme drug abuse, has given us the ability to capture and record things from different eras. We recorded "Irresponsible Hate Anthem" in February of next year."[1]
