Love & Hate is the fourth studio album by Blackpool band Section 25, which was released in 1988 by Factory Records.

Release

The recording of Love & Hate was completed in 1986, but the album was not released until 1988. Furthermore, there was a delay in the launch of the album’s first single "FAC 157," which was not released until May 1987.

Entertainment magazine Music Week was informed that the new single was a cover of the 1965 song “Good News Week” by Jonathan King.

There was some dispute regarding copyright infringement in Section 25 composition- namely that the reproduction of the song was unauthorized, and that the first five lines of the lyrics infringed the copyright.

The dispute was swiftly settled by the MCPS, but not before all of the copies of FAC 157 had been recalled by the distributor, and Section 25 was obliged to sign 100% of the publishing to Jonjo Music and Jonathan King.

LTM Recordings reissued the album in 1999 with a digital remaster which included bonus tracks. It was renamed Love & Hate (In the English Countryside), but the album is still referred to by its original name. The reissue came with additional liner notes and was digitally remastered.

The album was reissued again in 2013 on Factory Benelux, returning the track listing to the original 1988 running order and adding further bonus tracks.
