Riddles Are Abound Tonight is an album by Sausage, a band composed of the original lineup of the California Bay Area group Primus: bass guitarist/vocalist Les Claypool, guitarist Todd Huth, and drummer Jay Lane. The album was released in April 1994. The band followed the album with a short tour, opening for Helmet and Rollins Band. With Claypool's signature intricate bass lines and droning nasal lyrics, this album sounds much like early 1990s Primus.

The music video for Riddles Are Abound Tonight features band members in hooded jumpsuits, and was featured on Beavis and Butt-Head.
