Success is an album by the Seattle alternative rock band the Posies, released in 1998. The band broke up after the album's release; they regrouped in 2005.

Critical reception

AllMusic called Success "the most laid-back album the Posies have recorded to date; freed of the glossy production of their Geffen years and of the major label pressure to record a 'hit,' they turned out an album that was more immediate, more relaxed, and more theirs."
