Sweaty Handshake was the debut compilation album by Irish rock band Pet Lamb. It was released 27 January 1995 through Roadrunner Records.

It is a compilation of two EPs released through Dublin based indie label Blunt Records – Paranoid from the Neck Down released 1 March 1993, and Spent released 5 January 1994.[1] Two additional tracks recorded in 1994, 'All Time Low' and 'I Got Played', as well as additional instrumental segues at the end of tracks 6 and 12, are only available on this release.

'Drop It' from the Paranoid from the Neck Down EP, and all tracks from the Spent EP, were remixed for this album. The spoken sample at the end of 'Never Rest Again' fades out on this release.

The album was released on LP, CD and Cassette. Initial copies of the LP included a 7" featuring 'The Cleaver' and 'Bangkok', an Alex Chilton cover.
