Love Is for Suckers is the fifth studio album by the heavy metal band Twisted Sister. It was strongly influenced by glam metal bands, although the band split after its release and had a lot of conflicts with this record which led to a split. According to the Live At Wacken DVD, the material was originally meant to be a solo album by Twisted Sister's lead singer, Dee Snider, but the label pushed for it to be released under the Twisted Sister name instead. Love Is For Suckers was released by Atlantic Records on August 13, 1987. The tour for the album ended in Minneapolis, Minnesota on October 10, 1987. Two days later, on October 12, 1987, vocalist Dee Snider announced his departure from the band.
