Normal as the Next Guy

Normal as the Next Guy is the sixth and final studio album by American rock band the Knack, released in 2001.

It marks the fourth comeback attempt by the band after its second album, ...But the Little Girls Understand, failed to achieve the success of the band's début album.

[2] AllMusic critic Mark Deming noted that the album finds songwriter and lead singer Doug Fieger having resolved his issues with women, but has not "found a subject that appears to compel him nearly as much as the treacheries of girls once did.

[3] Normal as the Next Guy was the Knack's first release on Smile Records.

[3][4] Pat Torpey and David Henderson play drums on Normal as the Next Guy, instead of original Knack drummer Bruce Gary.
