Nine High a Pallet is the first studio album by brute., a band based in Athens, Georgia, USA, which was a collaboration band between the guitarist Vic Chesnutt and members of Widespread Panic. The album was recorded at John Keane (record producer)'s studio in Athens, Georgia.

The liner notes to the album suggest that the band's name originated from a comment from Dave Schools who reportedly stated, "Play like a brute."

The liner notes also suggest that the album title derives from the safe stacking height for pallets.

The band Brute played 5 shows under that moniker, and Vic would collaborate with the band several more times before his death.[5][6]

Several brute. songs have been covered by Widespread Panic over the years since Vic's death, including "Protein Drink/Sewing Machine" and "Bastards in Bubbles."
