The Sky Above the Mud Below is an album by New Zealand band Tall Dwarfs released in 2002. It includes an International Tall Dwarfs EP called The Weidenhaüsen Impediment ("FREE!!!"),^[2] but it remains unclear whether this was also released separately. Friends recorded sounds for this EP, which were then turned into songs by Bathgate and Knox (similar to the way Stumpy had come about). The Sky Above the Mud Below (not The Sky Above, the Mud Below as Allmusic spells it^[3]) is the most recent album released by the Tall Dwarfs.
