Alien Ant Farm is an American rock band that formed in Riverside, California in 1996. They have released six studio albums and sold over five million units worldwide. The band's cover of Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal" topped the Billboard Alternative songs charts in 2001,^[1] and was featured in the film American Pie 2.

They released their debut album, Greatest Hits, independently in 1999, then signed to DreamWorks Records in 2000. Their second album, ANThology, was released in 2001 and has been certified platinum by the RIAA, selling over one million copies and reaching number 11 on the Billboard 200. Their third album, TruANT, was released in 2003. The album was produced by brothers Robert and Dean DeLeo of Stone Temple Pilots, and made it to number 42 on the Billboard 200.

In 2005, the band recorded their next album, 3rd Draft, but its release was blocked by the label after Geffen bought out DreamWorks. It was eventually released in 2006 as Up in the Attic, charting at number 114 on the Billboard 200. After several years of sporadic touring, the band's fifth studio album, Always and Forever, was released in February 2015. After nine years, the band released their sixth album, Mantras, in early 2024.
