Ferociously Stoned is the first studio album by the American band Cherry Poppin' Daddies, independently released on Space Age Bachelor Pad Records in 1990, and re-released on compact disc in December 12, 1994, with four extra tracks.

Ferociously Stoned is considered the epitome of the Daddies' early career: loud, fast, and dirty, with styles all over the proverbial map. In contrast to the band's future releases, which would find them experimenting with a vast array of different genres, Ferociously Stoned' isn't as diverse, it's sound primarily dominated by swing and funk/funk metal, although the album briefly branches off into hard rock and disco. Lyrically, the tones are just as versatile, with songs ranging from serious and introspective to raunchy and gleefully immature.

The title is taken from a line in the Motörhead song "Iron Horse/Born to Lose": "He rides a whirlwind that cuts to the bone/Loaded forever and ferociously stoned". The working title for this album was The Enemy Within ^[1].
