With Love and Squalor is the major label debut
album from rock band We Are Scientists. It was
released in the United Kingdom in October 2005
on Virgin Records and charted at No. 43, with a
large cult following which enabled it to after
nearly 6 months of release, gain a gold
certification by the BPI in 2006. The album sold
an average of 4,166 copies each week before it
got the certification. The album title is derived
from a J.D. Salinger short story, "For Esmé – with
Love and Squalor", which was originally
published in The New Yorker and subsequently in
Nine Stories, a compilation of Salinger's short
stories. 2025 is the albums 20 th anniversary, for
