Naked Apes and Pond Life was the seventh full-length Shriekback album. This 2000 release was a surprise resurfacing for the band, after almost a decade of quiet. It gathered many songs performed in intimate appearances in London over the preceding years, recorded in the studio by Barry Andrews, Martyn Barker, Lu Edmonds (last seen on 1985's Oil & Gold), as well as Simon Edwards and Mark Raudva.

Many of the tracks are instrumentals, but the strong vocal-led "Berlin" and Big Night Music-esque "Everything's on Fire" are standouts.
