Untouchable Sound is the sixth album by The Make-Up. Released in 2006, six years after the band became inactive and six years before they would reunite for the first time, it is their second live album (although "live" sounds were added to the studio recordings of Destination: Love - Live! At Cold Rice). It is the band's only release to feature Alex Minoff on guitar. Track #11, "Wade in the Water," is a cover of a traditional African-American spiritual song of the same name.
