"The Nth Times" CD cover art

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 release party in 1993, and a well attended gig at the University of Waikato's Orientation in 1993 (supporting Headless Chickens anf Frente).

Love and Violence initially featured brothers Andrew Newth and Scott Newth, and added Scott Brodie (of Spatula Death, and later Inchworm) on guitar in December 1992. They released one tape, The Nth Times, on Airwigg in 1992 (featuring just the Newth brothers). The album included the song Sin, featuring a lengthy sample of an American evangelist, which received much airplay on Contact 89FM at that time. It was rereleased on CD in April 1993 with two bonus tracks (both recorded with Brodie), being cheaper if you held a coupon provided with the original tape. The CD release party was held at Ward Lane Tavern on 22 April 1993, supported by Romantic Andes. Brodie had left the band immediately prior to the CD release, in March, to concentrate on Spatula Death, Inchworm, and his studies, and his place was taken by Chris Fish. Late in their existence, drummer [[[Marky Mark]] was added.

Another song, Violator, appeared on the Discordia Concors CD, and Time is now appears on the They came to take us alive compilation. Two early songs, Wish and Egyptian Paradise, appeared on the 1992 compilation Just Teasing V1.

Scott and Andrew Newth went on to form Fallen. The name change was due to the new direction the music was taking at the time.
