All for love, we try to make it right All for love, we hold each other tight
When I Love by Das Pop was released in 2000, it was a breath of fresh air in the Belgian pop scene. An album that balanced playful synths, British influences, and an undeniable flair that made Das Pop a unique band. Now, 25 years later, this masterpiece is being reissued for Record Store Day 2025, including an exclusive 7″ single—a treat for both nostalgic fans and new listeners.
What makes I Love so special is how timeless it feels. From the energetic opener The One to the melancholic Forever, each track has its own character, yet together they form a cohesive whole. The influences of Bowie, Blur, and The Beatles are evident, but Das Pop manages to maintain its own identity. The production by Phil Vinall—who previously worked with Pulp and Placebo—gives the album an international allure without losing its Belgian charm.
The Record Store Day 2025 reissue is a tribute to the lasting impact of I Love. The addition of a 7″ single makes it extra special, a tangible reminder of a time when indie pop truly dared to be adventurous.
For me, I Love remains an album that you rediscover time and again. It’s playful, bold, and above all, irresistibly catchy. Whether you’re an old fan or listening to the album for the first time—this reissue proves that great music has no expiration date.
