Tripping Daisy is the fourth studio album by Tripping Daisy. It was released in 2000 on the independent label Sugar Fix Records. It marks the band's final release with guitarist Wes Berggren and drummer Benjamin Curtis.

Production

The album was released following the termination of the group's contract with Island Records. It came out a few months after the death of guitarist Wes Berggren, after which point the band broke up. The album is now out of print. Starting with the track "Drama Day Weekend", the majority of the songs on the record flow into each other, as though one long musical composition. According to Tim DeLaughter, there were only 500 CDs made. The final track ends at 4:37 & starts up again at 10:57 and plays out till the end (as studio gibberish & outtakes).
