Love/Hate is the second studio album by English rock band Nine Black Alps. It was recorded by Dave Sardy (Jet, Oasis) in L.A. and is the follow-up to debut album Everything Is (and Glitter Gulch EP) and was released on October 29, 2007.

This album has been described as a move towards 'pop accessibility' with more hummable tunes and a less alternative sound.[7] Vocalist and guitarist Sam Forrest stated in an interview that this album was more about the songwriting rather than the power of the guitar.[citation needed]
