Gerbils released their debut Are You Sleepy? on Hidden Agenda in 1998 as catalog number AHA006. The tracklist is as follows:
- Sunshine Soul (2:36)
- Is She Fiona (2:54)
- Crayon Box (3:01)
- Penny Waits (2:17)
- Fluid (2:23)
- Wet Host (3:08)
- Glue (4:22)
- Ted Doesn't Mind (2:23)
- Walnuts (2:28)
- Lead (4:50)
- Grin (3:06)
Sporting a lo-fi bedroom indie-pop sound, it's a very enjoyable album. My personal favorites are the tracks Grin and Crayon Box.
The cover is an almost hippie image of a tree that goes well with the odd sound.
