A largely electronic band formed in mid-1992, Love and Violence were for a short period a popular live act, playing (for example) the [[Discordia Concors]] [[Discordia Concors Release|release party]] in 1993, and a well attended gig at [[the University of Waikato]]'s Orientation in 1993 (supporting ''Headless Chickens'' and ''Frente''). They were also known to make appearances at regular electro-industrial specialist events, including ''The Bunker'' in Hamilton and ''Technohell'' in Auckland.<br><br><br />
<br />
Love and Violence initially began life as a duo, featuring brothers [[Andrew Newth]] and [[Scott Newth]]. They released one tape, [[The Nth Times]], on [[Airwigg]] in 1992. The album included the song ''Sin'', featuring a lengthy sample of an American evangelist, which received much airplay on [[Contact 89FM]] at that time. Also in 1992, two early songs, ''Wish'' and ''Egyptian Paradise'' appeared on the compilation [[Just Teasing V1]].<br><br><br />
<br />
They soon decided that their live shows required more than vocals and electronica, and added [[Scott Brodie]] (of [[Spatula Death]], and later [[Inchworm]]) on guitar in December 1992. ''The Nth Times'' was then re-released on CD in April 1993 with two bonus tracks (both featuring Brodie's guitar work), and had the distinction of being the first full-length internationally distributed CD release from a Hamilton band. The CD release party was held at [[Ward Lane Tavern]] on 22 April 1993, supported by [[Romantic Andes]], and copies could be obtained at a discount rate if you held a coupon provided with the original tape.<br><br><br />
<br />
Brodie had left the band in March, immediately prior to the CD release, to concentrate on [[Spatula Death]], [[Inchworm]], and his studies. His place was taken by [[Chris Fish]], and later in their existence, drummer [[Mark McGeady|Marky Mark]] was added. Also in 1993 the Love and Violence track ''Violator'' appeared on the [[Discordia Concors]] CD, and ''Time Is Now'' appears on the [[They came to take us alive]] compilation. <br><br><br />
<br />
"Turn To Me" was re-recorded in 1993 and released as a single. The video received a number of plays on MTV and was directed by Paul Swadel.<br />
<br />
Scott and Andrew Newth (along with drummer Marky Mark) went on to form [[FALLen]] in about 1995. The name change was due to the new direction the music was taking at the time, and the arrival of [[Chris Paki]] on guitar. Chris Fish and Marky Mark also later appeared in [[Department of Corrections]] roughly between 1995 and 1997.<br />
<br />
The band came to a halt in 1997 with a half finished album recorded at the Zoo Recording Studio, which closed due to financial difficulties. Only two songs, "Untitled' (included on the [[Contact FM]] compilation [[Green Eggs and Hamilton]]) under the Fallen name; and "Confessional" were ever released, using the Love and Violence name again. "Confessional" won a Waikato Rock Award for Best Recorded Work for Scott and Andrew Newth. The video for "Confessional" was directed by [[Greg Page]] from a concept by Scott Newth, however the video was deemed to be 'two dark for TV' and no station would play it.<br />
<br />
Scott and Andrew Newth had established [[Rumpus Room]] with drummer [[Greg Page]] by this time, working again with Scott Brodie, and later Chris Paki.<br />
<br />
At the 2010 [[Circle Jerk]], ''Violator'' was covered by [[Radio Over Moscow]]. A studio version of the song was released on the ''[[Circle Jerk 2010 EP]]''.<br />
