Love Bites

Love Bites is the second studio album by English punk rock band Buzzcocks. It was released on 22 September 1978, through United Artists Records. The album peaked at number 13 on the UK Albums Chart at the time of its release, making Love Bites their highest-charting album. Background and production Love Bites was recorded and mixed by Buzzcocks with producer Martin Rushent over a two-and-a-half-week period in July and August 1978, less than six months after the release of their début album, Another Music in a Different Kitchen. The album was recorded in the midst of an extensive touring schedule. The instrumental track "Late for the Train" was first played and recorded on John Peel's Radio One show, along with bass player Steve Garvey's instrumental "Walking Distance".
