Underground is the second studio album by the American garage rock band, The Electric Prunes, and was released in 1967 on Reprise Records. It would be the final album of any materialized input by band members until the 1969 "New Improved" Electric Prunes were formed. The album was a moderate chart hit, but, without a hit-ready single, the band could not repeat their past success.[3]

In 2011, it was included in NME's "The 100 Greatest Albums You've Never Heard" list,[4] chosen by Andrew VanWyngarden of MGMT.
