The Valentine LP is the fifth studio album by American rock band Wheatus.

Background

The album is a set of "post-apocalyptic love songs", according to frontman Brendan B. Brown.[1] Brown delved into the concept of "reconstituting society, fighting zombies, and trying to maintain some kind of romantic relationship at the same time."[1] The album's sound is reminiscent of 1970s-era The Who, Rush and AC/DC.[1]

Release

Wheatus released an album sampler for The Valentine LP through YouTube in July 27, 2013 and subsequently released the full tracks between August 14 and September 9.[2] The album was released on August 2, 2013 as digital download (mp3 and FLAC) through the band's website,[3] with a vinyl version shipping in late 2013.[4] The digital version of the album includes a pdf entitled "Valentine Comic", with concept art for the album, depicting a zombie apocalypse love story. The concept art was designed by graphic artist Ecol (Eric Collins).[5]

"Only You" was released as a single on July 6, 2014.[6] The song was a collaboration between Brendan Brown and two members of One Direction, bassist Sandy Beales and drummer Josh Devine.[6] The song came about after One Direction was playing Wheatus' "Teenage Dirtbag" live.[6] In September and October, Wheatus went on a tour of the UK.[6] The Valentine LP was released on CD through Blacktop Records in the UK in 2014 with three bonus tracks: "Only You", a single mix of "Holiday" and an acoustic version of "Only You".[7]
