Anthem is the fifth studio album by American ska punk band Less Than Jake, released on May 20, 2003 on Sire Records, a Warner Bros. imprint. A year after their fourth studio album Borders & Boundaries, the band had spent sometime at their practice space writing new material; by the middle of 2002, the band said their next album would be with Warner Bros. Records. Following a meeting with Rob Cavallo, he was enlisted as the producer for the album. Sessions were held at Piety Street Recording in New Orleans and Morning View Studio in Malibu, California, occurring between October and December 2002. Anthem received generally favorable reviews from critics, some of whom noted the shift away from horns into pop-punk, while others commented on Cavallo's production. It reached number 45 on the Billboard 200 in the United States. "The Science of Selling Yourself Short" peaked at number 36 on the US Alternative Airplay chart. Preceded by a headlining US tour, "She's Gonna Break Soon" was released as the album's lead single in April 2003. The band then appeared on the Honda Civic Tour, went on a European tour and then spent three months as part of the Warped Tour.
