Love Peace & Fuck is the 2001 debut album by Julian Cope side project Brain Donor, released on Impressario records[1] as a double LP. It was written, produced and directed by Cope along with long term collaborator Thighpaulsandra.[2] The album was recorded by the power pop trio of Cope, lead guitarist Dogan Foster and drummer Kevin Bales, both formerly of Spiritualized. Cope plays bass, a role he had not assumed since The Teardrop Explodes in the late 1970s.[3]
The lyrics center on Cope's then obsession with ancient, pagan cultures, including references to Celtic and Norse folklore,[2] while the music inclines towards The Stooges and 1980s British Heavy Metal. Love Peace & Fuck was described by music critic Aaron Badgley as "pure noise" and "garage rock, prog rock, and..."Krautrock" all rolled into a 2001 sound".[2]
