Love/Hate - Why Do You Think They Call It Dope?

[@nikkifoxworth1579]

My dad used to sing this song to me through out my years of drug addiction. Never listened to the song or saw video until now. Sober now, miss u dad.

[@ruddyguzzman]

Your dad was a bad ass!❤

[@holeintheleg]

Don’t f’ck with me because I’ll f’ck with you etc etc Sometimes the choruses are on point lol

Not only was your dad awesome, good on you for getting clean. He'd be soo proud!

[@keeponcruisin7876]

Glad you made it kid. We been expecting you. Don't ever stop. Keep moving forward. Learn from your mistakes and better yourself. Rock on Brother 🤘😎

[@4chords91]

Really like this band. There several bands around this time that just didn’t get the recognition they should have. Great sounding album all the way through.

[@starspanglednightmare283]

Aka Dangerous Toys or Bang Tango

[@cherrybullet1]

It's because Grunge swallowed up the airwaves and bands like these did not have enough time to spread their wings. A cryin' shame.

[@justinwhite9689]

Blackout is a solid album, Wasted was good too.

This entire sounds best loud. It was the ultimate party album of 1990.

I’m a grunger!!! Alternative 90s kid I have such great appreciation for some of these bands who were thrown under the hair metal umbrella Love/hate rocks

[@mustlovepretzels]

Tom Werman's book "Turn It Up" brought me here. Cheers! 🥨

Im from Philly and played in a hair band thru the 80s and 90s and played NYC with these dudes a few times... The scene was killer. Jersey,Philly,NYC clubs were bangin.

Hair metal was the pinnacle of 20th century art.

Jizzy Pearl,Skud Rose,Joey Gold,Jon E Love 4 fantastic musicians ...man this song is a 4 minutes trip ... Majestic !

[@giok4784]

Thank you guys for making my life better.I will never forget this album.if they play some of this tracks at my funeral I might get up for a couple of minutes to vibe with it.

[@nickolaymiltenov]

Rather underrated and underestimated band. Good old rock and rollers.

[@timmayer7248]

Saw these guys in the early 90's in Minnesota at the New Munich Ballroom. Awesome show.

[@LondonfetishfairCoUk]

I saw Love / Hate play alot in Britain at the time and they were absolutely brimming with energy and the crowd was raucaus. 'Nuff said.

[@phil503]

This album and Wasted in America just lift me up! Such a unique vibe.

So...this is the video that was shown to me back in that day... When The Management hired me to be Back line and stage mgr.. I liked the shit... So....1 of the Rockin band's that had the pleasure....1992 -93 Miss ya...u know...👏✌💪

this is over a quarter century old and it's still better than a lot of the crap coming out these days.

[@camilomontoya7412]

shyt im old

[@strolmartianlady]

Me too. :-) I was tryin' to figure out how to see these guys at the bar in my city - I was 17. Spoiler alert - never did,. and then the 90s happened.

[@superchuck3259]

Crap now days is all the same. That is why it sounds so familiar! Radio Crap! These guys were silly and creative!

[@unjust2u]

Their debut album Blackout in the Red Room was recorded in 1989 and released on February 22, 1990. It reached No. 154 on the billboard 200. I always liked this album. I was shocked it did not do better, but times and music were changing very fast when it was released. So I'm very happy we got what we got!

[@manifesto666]

If you think music is "crap" nowadays, you're obviously just listening to the same old shit and not actively looking for new music you might enjoy. Good music is out there. (yes even music that you would enjoy) Music didn't just "get bad," you just got old.

[@Bacchus1983]

Love the chorus and psychedelic strings at the 2 minute mark. Great record.

[@ansirodesetta3014]

I'm 49 and these guys deserve more recognition most definitely. They didn't really come off to glam to me. They had a punk edge with some classic rock thrown in and a little modernism to even it out. I really love this album.

[@holeintheleg]

Talking about this online - they straddled the decade unfortunately- writing was on the wall for a lot of bands… they made it across it into the 90s barely, by which the landscape had changed massively. They didn’t stand a chance

[@ChrisOrganic]

Man.. I remember the ONE time this cool AF band came to play in UK in 90s, we were there, me and all my mates.. one of them had a broken leg but still he played on, crutches and all. LOVE YOU GUYS

[@davevrox3023]

Waiting for my signed book. I met them. Totally AWESOME NICE guy's just rocking out. 😁✌🤘💖

[@mistymaxwell4494]

This song has great bass and guitar!!!!

[@wristclutchatomicdrop]

that's because they're copied from "two tribes", which was a trevor horn song

[@vistalite]

I saw these guys at a club show when touring on the first record. I was already familiar with the entire album, so it was a treat to see the band play it up close. In my opinion, there was no better drummer that came out of the LA hair/glam music scene than this guy. His playing is incredibly tasteful and his chops are impeccable.

[@hah5247]

amazing song.the base is addictive.this song is the real deal

An absolute proto teen spirit - quiet chorus then a huge drum kick lead the bridge to a loud chorus + no guitar solo. Years ahead of their time.

1990 was the first time i went to the US,comin' from Italy i remember vividly landing in NYC and see the Manhattan skyline just like in this video,i was super excited! We went straight to Philadelphia,it wasn't an holiday,we went there to trying to get a cure for my little brother in an institute specialized in brain injury. In a day off we went downtown and i immerse myself in a record store and bought some albums ,Blackout In The Red Room was one of them,i remember the cashier told me "this is a great record!",he was right!

Good to see that you got something decent and memorable from your time here. It really IS a great album! Was everything a success with your brother?

@@tonyorsini5255 Hey Tony! In Philadelphia everything was fine, the doctors were super nice and knowledgeable, we treated my brother with their advice for many years, in July 1991 I went back to NYC and ended up meeting Love / Hate many times around clubs or just walking around the Village, I think they were recording their second album Wasted In America, which wasn't released yet, in October I saw them play at The Limelight, it was a great show!great memories.

Saw these guys back in 1991. It may have been late September or early October, me and a few friends went to see a couple of bands at a club Which held about 2000 people. Those two bands were Alice in Chains and Mookie Blaylock ( they weren't called Pearl Jam yet). That was a Friday night, then on Saturday we went to the same club where Love/ Hate were opening for Saigon Kick and the place was definitely over capacity. Love/Hate blew Siagon Kick away. I was actually there to see SK but Love / Hate were the better band that night.

I watched them open for L.a Guns and Skid Row in 91. They played a low-key gig three days later in Londons Borderline. The energy from that set in such a small venue was truly electrifying.
