Smart Flesh is the third studio album by American indie folk band The Low Anthem, released on February 22, 2011 on Bella Union in UK/Europe and Nonesuch Records in US. The majority of the album was recorded in an abandoned pasta sauce factory in Central Falls, Rhode Island, near the band's hometown of Providence, Rhode Island.[1][2] Smart Flesh is the only album to feature multi-instrumentalist Mat Davidson, who left the band during the album's promotional tour.
A numbered, letterpress printed version of the album was issued upon release, containing an additional disc with three "passable strays that missed the cut."[3] The bonus track, "Dreams Can Chase You Down", is written by former member Dan Lefkowitz.
