''Tried + True'' is the third and final studio album by Tinfed, released on August 22, 2000 by Hollywood Records.

The song "Dangergirl" features a guest appearance by Chino Moreno, lead vocalist of Deftones. The album also contains "Immune", which was featured in the 2000 film '' Mission: Impossible 2'' and appeared on its soundtrack.
