Love + Fear is the fourth studio album by Welsh singer-songwriter Marina Diamandis, and her first under the mononym Marina. It was released in full on 26 April 2019 by Atlantic and Neon Gold Records, though the album's first half was surprise released on 4 April 2019. Marina took a hiatus after she concluded touring in support of her third studio album Froot (2015) with plans to retire from music. However, she began working on a new record with several producers, including Sam de Jong, Oscar Görres, Joel Little, Jack Patterson, Mark Ralph, James Flannigan, and Oscar Holter during its recording.
Musically, Love + Fear has been described musically as a pop, dance-pop, synth-pop, and electropop album with a more commercial sound, in comparison to Marina's previous albums. Conceived as a double album, each half of the album explores the two nominal emotions referenced in the title, according to the theory by psychologist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. Love + Fear received generally mixed reviews from music critics and debuted at number five on the UK Albums Chart, becoming the singer's fourth consecutive top ten album.
The album was supported by five singles: "Handmade Heaven", "Superstar", "Orange Trees", "To Be Human", and "Karma". It also includes the previously released single "Baby" (2018) with Clean Bandit.
