Unbelievable is the fifth studio album by American

Trouble Free
in 1996.

Critical reception

Entertainment Weekly thought that the band "knows how to please with show-off musicianship and clever vocal harmonies ... but too often they call more attention to how hard they’re working than to what lies between the grooves."[3]
