Biography

There is more than one artist with this name:

1) The Loved Ones were an Australian rock group of the 1960s, formed in the wake of the British Invasion. Although the band’s career lasted only two years, the group is now regarded as one of the most significant Australian bands of the 1960s.

2) The Loved Ones are a band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The band was founded in late 2003 by Dave Hause (formerly of The Curse and Paint It Black) on vocals and guitar, Michael Cotterman (formerly of Kid Dynamite) on bass and Mike Sneeringer (formerly of Trial By Fire) on drums. In 2005, they released a self-titled EP on Jade Tree Records. Their debut full-length album, Keep Your Heart, was released in 2006 on popular San Francisco punk label Fat Wreck Chords.

After leaving Paint It Black, singer Dave Hause worked as a roadie for New Jersey’s The Bouncing Souls, which got the Loved Ones’ foot in the door. They eventually toured with the Bouncing Souls and many other reputable bands, including Against Me!, Rise Against, Bad Religion, NOFX, and Less Than Jake.

In December 2006, a posting on the band’s MySpace page announced that Cotterman had left the band. He was replaced by Chris Gonzalez, and they also added second guitarist David Walsh. They were both formerly members of The Explosion, who had announced their breakup near the time Cotterman left.

    Dave Hause has some of the worst diction in punk rock since Joe Strummer. Fortunately, like Saint Joe he's still a great singer and a great songwriter to boot.

    "Keep your heart" is perfect. It will always be one of my favourite punk rock records. In Dave's new tour update are also some infos about the 3rd Loved Ones album: http://davehause.com/apologies-and-thanks.php

    OH YEAH, that'd be SO easy, they'd have to do that with all of the other multiple artists pages too,and what happens if you listen to songs that aren't ON any albums, how's Last.fm going to work that out?

    it would be easier to do the whole 'multiple page' thing if last.fm assigned specific albums to specific bands. i'd much rather see that than something like 'the loved ones (us)' as a fixed artist tag. that shit is ugly.

    I understand the problems created with the multiple artist per page thing, but doesn't everybody get that the only way it could be fixed is if somehow every person on last.fm that likes the Australian band scrobbled them as The Loved Ones (AUS) and everyone who likes the American band scrobbled them as The Loved Ones (US)? It has everything to do with what you choose to categorize each artist as. If you really want something done, change all your labels to a different name, then start building up that page. That's how you get things done when stuff like this happens.
