AboutLet's Talk About Feelings is the fifth full-length album released by the punk rock band Lagwagon on November 24, 1998.
Singer Joey Cape has stated that it is his favorite Lagwagon album. NOFX's Punk in Drublic (1994) was a big influence on the album. "Gun In Your Hand" contains a sound clip from the 1994 film, Swimming With Sharks and the song "Leave The Light On" contains two sound clips: One from the 1990 film, Jacob's Ladder, and another from the 1995 film, Welcome To The Dollhouse.
The front cover, painted by Mark de Salvo, depicts a teenage girl stating in a comic book word balloon "Let's Talk about Feelings". The back cover is a painting of a group of teenage girls talking in a bedroom.
The album was reissued in 2011 with demos, outtakes, EP's, and B-Sides.
In a 2008 review from Consequence of Sound it was noted that "Where as many bands lose sight of their roots when they try to expand their sound, Lagwagon knows how to use their innovation in all the right places, satisfying both indie purists and Warped Tour teenagers in the process. Going to the skatepark never sounded so good." On November 15, 2017, music and popular culture magazine Rolling Stone named Let's Talk About Feelings the 42nd greatest pop-punk album. Cleveland.com ranked "May 16" at number 48 on their list of the top 100 pop-punk songs.
