Mother Skinny is the eighth studio album released by the American psychedelic rock band Circus Devils in March, 2010.

The Fire Note wrote,Mother Skinny is just plain sinister art rock, that will keep your ear to your speaker so that you don't miss a beat.

Robert Pollard has never sounded more scary with his evil cackle on "Germ Circus" or his stretched out slow delivery in "Lurking", which feels like he is literally and weirdly right behind you.

The record is more of a return to their earlier work but adds in very strong thumping beats and guitar riffs, that absolutely drive each of the twenty tracks down your throat.

[1] Matthew Fiander, writing for PopMatters, added,These kooky songs pack an awkward punch, and make some room for us, the listeners, to immerse ourselves in sounds that are more accessible without being any less weird.
