The Sebadoh is the seventh studio album by the indie rock band Sebadoh.[2] It was released in 1999 on Sire Records. The album is the group's first and only major label release to date. Despite not becoming their third consecutive Top 40 album in the UK, it however spawned their only Top 40 single in that territory when “Flame” charted at No.30 in January 1999. Due to this relative success, it gave the band their only appearance on the major BBC television show Top of the Pops.

The Sebadoh is the only Sebadoh album with drummer Russell Pollard.

Rolling Stone wrote: "What keeps The Sebadoh from flying apart is the no-frills production, which puts a premium on the three-way conversation among bass, guitar and Russ Pollard's drums."[9]
