Background

A re-recorded version of the song "M-80 (Explosive Energy Movement)" was featured in the game Amplitude. The song "She Loves Me Not" was featured in the game NHL 2003.[5] The songs "She Loves Me Not" and "Walking Thru Barbed Wire" were recorded in 1999, with the former appearing on the band's 1999 demo and the latter on the ...Let 'Em Know! EP.[6] Despite peaking at higher positions on most charts worldwide, the album failed to catch the success of the band's previous album Infest.

In comparison to their prior album, Infest, the band aimed to incorporate less rapping, and more singing in Lovehatetragedy. Lovehatetragedy is Papa Roach's last album under DreamWorks Records, before signing to Geffen in 2003. Alongside with Infest, a debut vinyl edition of the album was released on September 8, 2017.[7]

Commercial performance

The album has sold more than 500,000 copies, achieving Gold certification in the U.S.[8] It was also certified Gold in Canada and in the UK[9] and has sold over 3,000,000 copies worldwide. It peaked at number two on the Billboard 200[10] by selling approximatively 136,000 copies in its first week, and was mostly well received by music critics, gaining an average score of 75 on Metacritic, as well as by fans despite some divide.. However, its 15 weeks stay on the Billboard 200 was significantly shorter than Infest, and many of the following albums.
