My Brain Hurts

My Brain Hurts is the third studio album by the Chicago-based punk rock band Screeching Weasel. The album was originally released on CD, vinyl and cassette in September 1991 through Lookout Records. It was the group's first album on Lookout as well as the only release with bassist Dave Naked and the first with drummer Dan Panic, the latter of which would go on to appear on several of the band's albums. The album marked a very distinct stylistic shift, moving toward a pop punk sound heavily influenced by the Ramones as a condition made by vocalist Ben Weasel when reuniting the band after a brief break-up.

After the release of My Brain Hurts, the band grew increasingly popular within the punk community and began drawing bigger crowds at their shows. Weasel later admitted that this put pressure on the band when recording the follow-up album Wiggle the next year. The album is regarded as one of the group's best releases by critics, fans and the band members themselves. It one of the band's best-selling releases and is often cited as influential to many later pop-punk bands. In 2005, the band removed their catalog from Lookout due to unpaid royalties, alongside many other artists, and re-released the album on CD in remastered form though Asian Man Records later that year. A vinyl edition with different cover art was also issued by Recess Records in 2009.
