Love & Hate is the fourth studio album by Blackpool band Section 25, released in 1988. Despite being recorded and finished by 1986, Factory Records didn't release the album until 1988, by which time the band were virtually forgotten. Factory also mis-handled the launch of the album's first single (quoting from the Section 25 biography):

Angered by Factory for numerous reasons, the band included '17 Alternative Titles' on the album's sleeve (however, there are only 14).

LTM Recordings reissued the album in 1999 with a number of bonus tracks. It was also renamed Love & Hate (In the English Countryside), but the album is still referred to by its original issue name. The whole package came with extensive liner notes and was digitally remastered. The sequencing of the album was altered to better flow with the new tracks, and "Tim Lick My Knees" was retitled to "Gymnopedies". A further re-issue appeared in 2013 on Factory Benelux, returning the track-listing to the original 1988 running order with bonuses.
