The Maggot is the tenth album by the Melvins, which was released in 1999 through Ipecac Recordings. This album is the first part of a trilogy followed by The Bootlicker and The Crybaby. The Trilogy was later released on vinyl by Ipecac Recordings (The Trilogy Vinyl, IPC-011, November 27, 2000).

On the CD version all songs are split into two tracks. A 2006 reissue of the album swaps the background artwork with The Bootlicker.
