Life, the second album from New York City industrial metal crew Dope, landed on November 6, 2001, on Epic and Flip. Founder Edsel Dope, who sings, plays guitar and keyboards and runs the samplers, co-produced it with Josh Abraham, with Simon Dope on keyboards, Virus on guitar and backing vocals, and Racci Shay on drums.

The sound owes an obvious debt to Marilyn Manson: cold, mechanical menace with nu metal's stomp and sneer bolted on, built to be played loud and angry. "Now or Never" caught a countdown's attention. Sales passed 73,000 in the US, but Epic barely lifted a finger to promote it, and the band walked away from both labels afterward, which made Life their last release for either one.
