Tonics & Twisted Chasers is het tiende studioalbum van de Amerikaanse indierockband Guided by Voices. Oorspronkelijk zou het album als lp in een gelimiteerde oplage uitgebracht worden aan de fanclub.[1] Er werden duizend platen geperst in verschillende kleuren. Fans mochten niet meer dan twee platen per persoon kopen. De kleur "trash", blauw en groen met spikkels, was als eerste uitverkocht. Een jaar later verscheen het album ook op cd waarop vijf extra nummers verschenen. Het album bevat outtakes van Bee Thousand (1994) en Alien Lanes (1995).[1]
