"Tight", is the first studio album released by Mindless Self Indulgence in 1999, (not to confuse this with Jimmy Urine and his brother's 1995 project, Mindless Self-Indulgence and 1997 project, Crappy Little Demo). The album is now extremely rare, and often sells for high prices online.

The album was originally released on April 20, 1999 through Uppity Cracker Recording Group. After having been out of print for many years, the album was reissued as "Tighter" on April 26, 2011 through The End Records. The reissue features updated artwork and packaging, 12 previously unreleased tracks, plus a bonus DVD.

The song "Bring the Pain" is a cover of Method Man's "Bring the Pain" from his album "Tical". The song "Bite Your Rhymes" references lyrics from Vanilla Ice's "Ice Ice Baby". There is a hidden track, "JX-47", where guitarist Steve plays acoustic guitar and sings nonsensical lyrics. The tracks "Mindless Self Indulgence" and "Ecnegludni Fles Sseldnim" are messages from the band's answering machine. They both concern getting the band booked for a live show, but both times the caller (Octavio 9) couldn't remember the band's name. "Hail Satan!" is actually a version of "Tornado" recorded live, otherwise known as "Tornado (Live at CBGB)".

On April 20, 2008, the band posted "Tight", in its entirety, on their MySpace page in honour of its ninth year from the original release.
