Laser Love is the second album by UK band After the Fire.[2][3] Released in 1979, the album showcased more of a new wave approach,[4] including much shorter songs than had been featured on the band's more progressive rock-oriented debut album, Signs of Change. It was produced primarily by Muff Winwood.[5]

The album includes the band's biggest hit in the UK, "One Rule For You". Laser Love peaked at No. 57 on the UK Albums Chart.[6]
