Praise the Lard is an album by PIG (Raymond Watts), initially released on Concrete Productions in 1991 and re-released by Cleopatra Records in 1997.

The re-released version has an incorrect track listing, due to the use of artwork from the original LP version. Cleopatra Records reissued the album after "purchasing" the rights from someone who did not legally own them. Raymond has indicated his desire to re-release the album, possibly with bonus tracks, but the album is currently unavailable in all markets (as of 2017).^[2]
