The Love of Hopeless Causes is the sixth studio album by British rock band New Model Army, released in 1993.

It featured guest musicians, guitarist Adrian Portas and Clive Layton, who played the Hammond organ on "Fate".

After the break from EMI, The Love of Hopeless Causes was the band's only album to be released on Epic, prior to the formation of the band's own label, Attack Attack Records.

The album saw the band abandoning the folk rock-oriented sound of their previous albums, Thunder and Consolation (1989) and Impurity (1990), going for a more classic straightforward rock sound.

[3] "Living in the Rose" was the title track of The Ballads EP (July 1993).
