Swingin' With Raymond is a 1995 album by anarchist punk band Chumbawamba. It was conceived as a concept album of sorts for the band, with the first side (or the first six tracks on CD) being entitled the "Love it" side and being lovely, sweet punk love songs, and the second half (or last seven tracks on CD) being entitled the "Hate it" side with the tracks on it being devoted to anger, loudness, noise and raw emotion. This was complemented by a man on the album cover with "LOVE" and "HATE" tattooed on his knuckles.
