Constellation is the third studio album by American heavy metal band Alabama Thunderpussy, released in 2000.[5][6]

Critical reception

The Austin Chronicle wrote that "thanks to the addition of acoustic guitars, piano, and organ, the tunes on Constellation are more diverse in character, more adventurous, than those on their previous, turn-up-more-with-each-listen River City Revival."[7]
