Eat the Worm is the fifth studio album by American musician and producer Jonathan Wilson.

It was influenced by the works of Jim Pembroke, and received positive reviews from critics.

[1] Classic Rock described it as a modest masterpiece",[4] Mojo remarked that "stylistic Easter eggs confound and delight",[5] while Uncut called it "weird but oddly wonderful".

[6] Thom Jurek of AllMusic deemed it "a showcase for a musician seeking to liberate himself from things he already knows" and wrote that it "feels like Harry Nilsson and Randy Newman writing, recording, and drinking heavily in a late-night studio session.

"[2] Hal Horowitz of American Songwriter summarized Eat the Worm as a "sprawling, 12-song, 51-minute opus that, at least occasionally, will test the most open-minded listener", also comparing Wilson's "laid-back voice" to Nilsson's.
