U

U is the third studio album by the American musician Underscores. It was released by Mom + Pop Music on March 20, 2026. Marked as a departure from the rural-inspired rock concept album Wallsocket, U establishes a more pop-based direction in genres ranging from dubstep to future bass. Underscores describes the album as being suited for malls, airports, hotels, and supermarkets, based on her experiences as a touring musician in constant transit. Following Underscores' Wallsocket tour, she took a break from her main music by writing accessible pop songs for other artists, inspiring her third studio album. Unlike her previous studio albums, U was written and recorded in multiple cities around the world while touring with Porter Robinson in the spring and Danny Brown in the winter, using a portable recording setup. Underscores noted that she made the album as an attempt to connect to what inspired her in her childhood, drawing inspiration from "consumerist architecture" like hotels and malls.
