Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Free Downloads is a studio album by American punk rock band T.S.O.L., released in 2009 to coincide with the band's thirtieth anniversary.[4][5] The album was released for free as a download through Hurley; Hurley's website hosted video of the band recording the album.[6] The band asked that fans instead consider donating to charity the money that they would have spent on purchasing the album.[7]

Production[edit]

Hurley funded the production of the album.[8] It built a studio in one of its warehouses, where the band recorded in December 2008.[9]

Critical reception[edit]

AllMusic wrote that "the key weapon [is] busy keyboardist Greg Kuehn, [who] floors yet again, working off Ron Emory's spider web of neo-psych guitars, while extroverted Jack Grisham remains uniquely charismatic, even when not dominating a stage."[2]
