Get Wet is the debut studio album released by Australian band Mental As Anything. It was released in November 1979,[5] and peaked at #19 on the Australian Album charts.[6]
Mombassa said the band's goal was, "Getting an album out that was reasonably like us. We had no great plans of what it should sound like although that was probably a bad idea as it should've sounded better. But it was done hastily and it's not a bad album."[7]
