Personal Life is the fifth album from the Portland-based indie rock band The Thermals. The album was released on September 7, 2010, on Kill Rock Stars. It is the first to feature current drummer Westin Glass, who joined after the completion of 2009's Now We Can See.

As the album was recorded and mixed on analog tape, and mastered for vinyl without digital processes, the vinyl edition boasts a SPARS code of AAA.

The first single from the album to be released was "I Don't Believe You". The music video features former Sleater-Kinney member Carrie Brownstein and Modest Mouse frontman Isaac Brock.[1] "Never Listen to Me" and "Not Like Any Other Feeling" were the other singles.
