Love is the fourth studio album by the San Francisco-based punk rock band Flipper, released in 2009.[3] [4] The album was issued more than 16 years after their previous studio album, 1993's American Grafishy. Love is the only Flipper studio album to date to include former Nirvana member Krist Novoselic.[5] [6] Recording sessions took place at Novoselic's studio in Washington.[7] [8]

Love was released simultaneously with the live album Fight, which was recorded in Portland, Oregon, and Seattle.[9] [10] Jack Endino recorded and produced both albums.

Critical reception

The Austin Chronicle wrote: "These old dogs haven't learned any new tricks, but with Jack Endino in the producer's chair and Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic, they manage a raucous, post-punk retread that, after the teenaged delinquency of 'Be Good, Child!' goes off like 'Sex Bomb' closing 1982's seminal Album: Generic Flipper."[1]
