Laboratory of Sound is an album by the American band the Fleshtones, released in 1995.[1][2] They supported it with a North American tour.[3] The album sold around 20,000 copies in its first decade of release.[4]
Recorded over two weeks in May 1995, the album was produced by Steve Albini.[5][6] "High on Drugs" was first recorded by guitarist Keith Streng's band with Peter Buck, Full Time Men.[7] The band, for the first time, wrote about their experiences, with "We'll Never Forget" a tribute to the music scene that had sustained the Fleshtones for almost 20 years.[8][9] An unlisted 69th track, "I Don't Live Today", is a cover of the Jimi Hendrix Experience song.[10]
