2005 studio album by The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower
Love in the Fascist Brothel is the second and final studio album by
San Diego
post-hardcore band
The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower , released on
Revelation Records and
Three One G on February 15, 2005, on
compact disc and
vinyl formats respectively. The album showed a significant change in sound from the band's previous full-length, focusing much more on the styles of
noise rock rather than just
jazz punk . The album's title, artwork, and lyrical themes act as political and social commentary on both the
presidency of George W. Bush and
punk subculture , which the band felt was "dead" by the time they recorded the album.

Packaging and Lyrical Themes
The album has a heavy theme of
nazism and
fascism throughout the lyrics and artwork. According to the band, this was done to not only mock
neo-nazi subculture , but it also acted as political and social commentary on
George W. Bush and
punk subculture as well.
