Think This is the second studio album by the American thrash metal band Toxik, released on October 13, 1989 by Roadracer Records. It is their only studio album to feature vocalist Charles Sabin and guitarist John Donnelly, and the last one to feature bassist Brian Bonini and drummer Tad Leger. Think This would also be Toxik's last studio album before their initial breakup in 1992, resulting in a 33-year gap between records until the release of Dis Morta in 2022.[4] The album was re-released by Metal Mind Productions and Displeased Records in 2007. Its artwork was designed by Ed Repka.
