At the End of the Day is the fifth studio album from heavy metal band, Galactic Cowboys. Multiple reviewers found that the album contained subtle references to Christianity, but provided plenty of subtext to interpret meanings with. ^{[8] [2]}

Notes

• The album contains the band's Machine Fish Suite, a series of songs woven together, telling the story of the band up to that point (tracks 4–10 inclusive).
• Drummer Alan Doss does lead vocals on the song "Through".
• The Japanese version of this album contained the song, "The Things They Couldn't Say", which was recorded in 1994, with lead vocals by then guitarist Dane Sonnier.
