Seasick is the debut studio album by the American indie rock band Imperial Teen, released on May 7, 1996 by Slash Records. Seasick was recorded in one week after the band had been together for six months. It was released on May 7, 1996 by Slash Records. Writing for Spin, Barry Walters praised the songwriting, stating that the "hooks are immediate, nearly non-stop, and the happy/sad lyrics draw you in with abstract intimacy"

Anyone expecting Faith No More's fractured art weirdness was in the wrong place with Imperial Teen, but those with an ear for attractive, quietly wry pop/rock that didn't give a care for being alternative in the '90s' marketable sense will find Seasick an enjoyable debut.

103 BPM. 2. Water Boy. 1'36. Album starts at 103BPM, ends at BPM (-103), with tempos within the -BPM range. Try refreshing the page if dots are missing). Recent albums by Imperial Teen. The Hair, the TV, the Baby and the Band.

There is absolutely nothing that isn't fun about this record. The eponymous track is undeniably groovy, and the rest of the album is a crunchy-riffed, yet bouncy time capsule of the mid-90s. Almost everybody was at least a little Nirvana-y at the time, but Imperial Teen managed to rise just far enough above that sea of influence to make something that really does stand the test of time.
