High Standards is a jazz album by the Finnish band Trio Töykeät. It was released in 2003. This particular record differs from other Töykeät -albums by consisting entirely of cover songs of songs the band members consider to be close to them. Especially notable is the version of the Black Sabbath -classic "Paranoid", performed entirely on a drum kit.
High Standards is the first Töykeät -album released on the Blue Note jazz label.
