Un is the eleventh studio album by English rock band Chumbawamba, released on 8 June 2004 by Koch Records. The album was written and produced by solely by Chumbawamba. A musical departure from predecessor Readymades (2002), the album incorporates elements of folk, electronic, and world music. Thematically, the album acts as a social commentary on a variety of political and social issues, including individualism and anti-consumerism. Un was promoted with two singles: "The Wizard of Menlo Park" and "On eBay".
It would be the band's last album with long-standing members Alice Nutter, Dunstan Bruce and Danbert Nobacon, apart from their guest appearances on the band's final release Going, Going – Live at Leeds City Varieties in 2012.
