Freak Magnet is the eighth studio album by Violent Femmes. It was released on February 22, 2000, and the featured single was "Sleepwalkin'."

Contents

Originally scheduled for a 1998 release on Interscope Records, Freak Magnet was pulled when the band was dropped from the label, although promo copies with a different track list were released and still circulate. Due to the poor performance of the album both critically and commercially, the band did not record any new music until releasing a cover of Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy" in 2008. The UK edition was released via Cooking Vinyl in 2000, whilst a reissue complete with live bonus tracks were released via Shout! Factory on May 24, 2005.
