Seventh Dream of Teenage Heaven is the debut album by the British band Love and Rockets, released in 1985 on Beggar's Banquet.

Although the previous band that all three members had been a part of, Bauhaus, is recognized as one of the first gothic rock bands, Love and Rockets started with a rather psychedelic sound, and a clear glam rock influence.

The album's original UK LP, Canada LP, UK CD, and US CD all featured slightly different tracklists. In 2001, the album was remastered and expanded to include additional single mixes and b-sides, many of which had appeared on various versions of the original album. The US mix of "Ball of Confusion" could not be fit on the CD, and was thus appended to the expanded remaster of Love and Rockets' second album, Express.
