Out of the Vein is the third studio album by American rock band Third Eye Blind. Released on May 13, 2003 through Elektra Records. Out of the Vein is the band's first album with guitarist Tony Fredianelli, who replaced longtime guitarist Kevin Cadogan in 2000. It would also be Third Eye Blind's final album with Elektra Records.
Out of the Vein was recorded at the group's own Mourning Wood Studios in downtown San Francisco and at Skywalker Sound. Frontman Stephan Jenkins wanted the album to be called Crystal Baller, but was changed as the other members hated the original name.
The album cover is by photographer Mick Rock, and according to Jenkins screams "rock joy". The first 100,000 copies of the CD included a DVD documenting the making of the album. The DVD also contains footage of the band practicing songs off the album (such as "Faster") in the studio and plays clips of a song that has yet to be released titled Invisible.
The vinyl version of the album, released in 2013 for the first time, includes different mixes of many songs from the original album.
