Under Rug Swept is the fifth studio album and third internationally released album by Canadian singer-songwriter Alanis Morissette. It was released in the United Kingdom on February 25, 2002, and in the United States the following day by Maverick Records. It is the first of Morissette's albums to be written and produced solely by the artist. The album gets its name from a lyric in the lead single, "Hands Clean".
Music critics praised Under Rug Swept for its lyrical content, rawness, and Morissette's vocal performances. The album debuted atop the Billboard 200 and additionally topped the charts of 11 other countries. While sales did not match that of Morissette's preceding two albums, it sold over 4 million copies worldwide.
