Close Calls With Brick Walls is the third album released by Andrew W.K. in 2006 through Universal Records. It was first released in Japan with an exclusive bonus DVD, then secondly in Korea with four exclusive bonus tracks. On August 18, 2007 it given a limited release in America only on vinyl on Load Records with 5 exclusive bonus tracks. Due to legal issues surrounding usage of the name "Andrew W.K.", it was finally released on CD to the rest of the world in March 2010 bundled with a second disc containing a collection of rare and unreleased songs called Mother of Mankind.

The album marked a major change in sound, abandoning the ”wall of sound” heard on earlier albums for a more traditional rock sound, and with Andrew's vocals sung rather than screamed. Songs of more experimental nature were also featured on this album. The album received a wide array of reactions from fans and critics.

A video was released for "Not Going To Bed" in Japan upon the album's release, and an animated video for "I Want To See You Go Wild" was released in June, 2010, to support the re-released 2-disc edition. A music video for ”I'm A Vagabond” (from the Mother of Mankind album) was also released.
