Double Plaidinum is the fourth album by Lagwagon, released in 1997.[6][7] It was their first album without the original line-up, as guitarist Shawn Dewey and drummer Derrick Plourde left the band before the recording sessions began. Ken Stringfellow of the Posies joined the band as temporary guitarist to record the album; his other commitments led to him being replaced for the album tour by Chris Rest, who joined the band on a permanent basis.[8]
The San Diego Union-Tribune wrote that "melody is in the driver's seat throughout the Santa Barbara quintet's fourth album, on which the standouts include the propulsive 'Confession', the breakneck 'Bad Scene', and the snappy 'Choke'."[3]
