"Express" is the second album by the British band Love and Rockets, released in 1986 on Beggar's Banquet.

The band continued in the same musical direction as their first album, Seventh Dream of Teenage Heaven, with a strong psychedelic and glam rock sound. Although still retaining a bit of their gothic rock sound, the band continued to distance themselves away from their previous work with Bauhaus.

The album contains two versions of "All in My Mind", one of which is labeled as an acoustic version. Although both feature similar lyrics and chord structures, the songs are clearly distinct from each other.

In 2001, the album was remastered and expanded to include two single remixes and several contemporaneous b-sides, including a cover of Pink Floyd's "Lucifer Sam". Two short experimental pieces that had been found on the studio tape masters labeled as "B Side #1" and "B Side #2" were also added. Note that "Ball of Confusion" was released before "Seventh Dream of Teenage Heaven", but since the USA mix could not be fit on the reissue of that album, it was appended to the "Express" reissue.
