Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too is the debut studio album by American
alternative rock band the
New Radicals. Released October 16, 1998, it is their only album release before disbanding in 1999. The album charted in several North American and European countries, and was frontman
Gregg Alexander's third album, following two unsuccessful albums released in 1989 and 1992, respectively. For the album's recording, Alexander enlisted numerous session musicians and is the only band member to perform on every song. The album's musical style was compared to numerous
rock artists, including
Billy Corgan,
Chumbawamba, and the
Rolling Stones.
The album spawned two
singles. "
You Get What You Give" was released as the first single off the album, and was commercially successful worldwide, reaching number one in
Canada and
New Zealand and peaking in the top 40 in the US and the UK, among other countries. The album's second single, "
Someday We'll Know," was released shortly after the group disbanded. It was far less successful than its predecessor, entering the top 40 only in Brazil and failing to chart on the
Billboard Hot 100.
