Parasite is the debut studio album by See You Next Tuesday, released on April 3, 2007, on the indie label Ferret. It is also the first release by the band with vocalist Chris Fox. All the song titles (excluding "Paraphilia" and both parts of "Pogonotrophy") are quotes from movies and television shows.

Background

Recording

To prepare for the album, See You Next Tuesday booked three weeks studio time at Planet Red Studios in Richmond, Virginia. Eight days into the recording process the drums and guitars were completely finished, but a computer crash wiped all the data, which forced the band to essentially record the album from scratch a second time. The next two weeks of their booked studio time were spent re-recording and finishing the record.[2] [3]

Artwork

The artwork, layout and cover was done by Dutch artist Dennis Sibeijn, who has also done album cover artwork for Job for a Cowboy and Chimaira.
