Love Is the New Hate is an album by the rock group Shihad.

It was released on May 2, 2005, and yielded the singles Alive, All the Young Fascists, Shot in the Head, Dark Times and None of the Above.

The album is considered a return to Shihad's earlier heavier style, after an ill-fated attempt to make it big in the United States. The lyrics themselves are notably darker because of this - and are far more politically-orientated than their earlier material, following their experiences touring the U.S under the Bush Administration.

The album entered the New Zealand music charts at number two, going Gold in its first week of release - and then Platinum two weeks later.

On 8 May the band released a Limited Edition copy of Love is the New Hate which came with a DVD of their 2005 performance in Aotea Square.
