A couple of more albums were released through smaller labels in the ’90s before the band finally disbanding in 1999. Love/Hate lost the Colombia deal then, but the band still didn’t give up. So, yeah, the Hollywood Sign was not received well at Columbia, but we just did it anyway because we wanted to. It apparently only made the situation worse. I’ve also learned that your Hollywood Sign publicity stunt didn’t help fix the already bad relationship between the band and the record company. But if you don’t sell millions of records, then you’re just kind of an asshole. If you’re big box office, they’ll let you get away with anything. That’s the way it is in this industry as it is in the film industry. Had we sold millions of records, all the sins would have been forgiven. Well, we just didn’t sell millions of records. Love/Hate released the second album “Wasted in America” in 1992, but although it still sold pretty well, the band soon dropped from Colombia Records. I mean, opening for Ozzy, opening for AC/DC in arenas and stadiums. What is your personal highlight from that era? It was a few years of wine, women, and songs. It must have been a dream come true for you all then. And Love/Hate was then covered everywhere, the videos ended up in heavy rotation on MTV, and everything looked great. Something like that “Laughs,” but as you said, it was a big deal when you made that signing with major label Colombia Records, and the album was a success. Obviously, it’s a little off the beaten track, but you just make a left turn it’s Sweden, and there you are, right? I came to Finland with Ratt, I remember, with Alice Cooper and Dio. I remember that at the time, Love/Hate made headlines even here in Finland, which is quite far from sunny California. “Blackout in the Red Room” was released in 1990, and it was a success. These things happen from time to time, and they’re encouraging, but getting the record deal and being on Columbia Records was the big thing, Love/Hate promo picture 1989 BLACKOUT IN THE RED ROOM AND WASTED IN AMERICA But again, at the time, it was a big deal, but really, I only made $200. And he got us on “The Nightmare on Elm Street” soundtrack.

A guy from New Line Cinema wasn’t full of shit. So, people come in and out saying, “Hey, I can get you this.” or, hey, I have a tour.” And then you find out that they’re just full of shit. You know what I mean? They’re bullshitters. A lot of guys offer you the world, and they’re charlatans. People come in and out of the band’s life. Well, there was a lot just kind of flukes. One interesting thing Love/Hate did before the record deal was that you managed to get your song included on the soundtrack of the “Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master” movie. And that was around the time we were doing our first record, ”Blackout in the Red Room,” and we were lucky enough to get a record deal out of it. Everybody goes through that phase before they settle on the sound, look, and vibe they want to present to the audience. We wore the makeup for a while, but everybody did. So yeah, we went through a few different guises. You’re trying to find your own sound amongst 1,000 bands and struggling in Los Angeles to try and get a record deal. Well, when you’re a young band, you’re trying to find yourself. Is it true that at one point, you were a glam rock band? Before that, you tried several different musical and visual styles. It took several years before Love/Hate achieved greater success and found its own style and sound. They had another singer, but their singer quit. You joined the band in 1985, but the other guys were playing together even before you were involved? Let’s start with the old stuff and your first actual band, Love / Hate. A couple of weeks ago, we had an interesting Zoom conversation with Jizzy that talked about the man’s upcoming album and Quiet Riot, as well as the early days of his career and everything that has happened since then. Jizzy has also written several books, and a new Jizzy Pearl’s Love/Hate album “Hell California” will be released early next year through Golden Robot Records. Guns, Ratt, Adler’s Appetite, and is currently the lead singer of the legendary band Quiet Riot. During the past twenty years, he has recorded and toured with L.A. Since then, Jizzy has released several solo albums and kept the band name alive as Jizzy Pearl’s Love/Hate.

In total, Love / Hate released six albums in the 90s before breaking up in 1999. The album was awarded “Best Record of the Year” by Kerrang! and Metal Hammer magazines. The band released their critically acclaimed debut “Blackout in the Red Room” in 1990 through Columbia Records.
