Life (stylized LIFE) is the second studio album by nu metal band Dope. It was released on November 6, 2001 on Epic Records and Flip Records. Life has sold over 73,000 copies in the United States[5] The album's sound bears a resemblance to those of Marilyn Manson and features some rap metal influences.[2] This was Dope's last album released on Epic and Flip, as the band severed ties over Epic Records' lack of promotion.
