Notwithstanding is the debut album by the American band Chalk FarM, released in 1996.[1][2]
The singles "Lie on Lie" and "Live Tomorrow" charted on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart, at No. 13 and No. 35, respectively.[3] The band supported the album by touring with Better Than Ezra and Tonic, among others.[4][5]
The album was produced by Matt Hyde, who recorded the band after hearing their 4-song demo.[6][7] All four band members contributed to the songwriting, which often aspired to U2-esque songs about social problems and universal themes.[8][9] The title of the album is a reference to the legal argot that kept appearing in Chalk FarM's recording contract.[10] The album contains a hidden track, which begins three minutes after "Sunflower".[11]
