Too High to Die is the eighth album by the Meat Puppets, released on January 25, 1994. It sold very well due to the success of its single "Backwater", which reached #2 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. The album itself also reached #1 on the Heatseekers chart, making it one of the Meat Puppets' most successful and highest ranking albums to date. The album's title is a parody of The Ramones' 1984 album Too Tough to Die. A limited edition of Too High To Die included the 10" vinyl promo EP Raw Meat. The cover art on this limited edition features more color than the simply pink-toned normal cover. The album was certified gold by the RIAA on October 6, 1994.
