Lovehatetragedy is the third overall and second major label studio album by the American rock music band Papa Roach. It was released on June 18, 2002.
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 Records in 2003. Alongside with Infest, a debut vinyl edition of the album was released on September 8, 2017.
Papa Roach toured on the second edition of the Anger Management Tour during the summer of 2002. They co-headlined with Eminem, who was also supported by Ludacris, Xzibit, X-Ecutioners, Bionic Jive during the tour. It was the last edition of Anger Management that had rock music being prominently featured, with Papa Roach's set occurring between Eminem and Ludacris's while Bionic Jive opened the concerts during the first half of the tour.
It achieved a gold certification in the U.S for exceeding 500,000 copies sold in the first two months. Despite peaking at higher positions on most international charts, "Lovehatetragedy" failed to catch the success of Infest both in lifetime sales and chartrun (15 weeks within the Billboard 200). It was also certified Gold in Canada, Switzerland and in the UK
