Too High to Die is the eighth album by the Meat Puppets, released on January 25, 1994 (see 1994 in music).

The album itself also reached #1 on the Heatseekers chart, making it one of the Meat Puppets' most successful and highest ranking albums so far.

The title of this album is a parody of The Ramones' 1984 album Too Tough to Die.
