Lovelife (album)

Lovelife is the third studio album by the British alternative rock band Lush, released in 1996. It was the band's final album before their initial breakup in 1998. Lovelife represents a move toward a more Britpop-influenced sound compared to Lush's earlier dream pop and shoegaze works.

The album spawned several singles, most notably "Ladykillers," which achieved considerable chart success. Lovelife explores themes of relationships, societal expectations, and modern life, often with a cynical or satirical edge.

The album received generally positive reviews upon release, with critics acknowledging its strong songwriting and catchy melodies. While some long-time fans missed the band's earlier ethereal sound, many praised Lovelife for its accessibility and maturity. The album is considered a significant part of Lush's discography and a reflection of the changing musical landscape of the mid-1990s.
