Truant (styled as truANT) is Alien Ant Farm's 3rd album. It was released on August 19, 2003 by DreamWorks Records. The producers of the album were Stone Temple Pilots' guitarist and bassist Robert DeLeo and Dean DeLeo. "These Days" was released to radio on July 1, 2003. "Glow" was released to radio on September 9, 2003.

The music video for track "These Days" was filmed on a roof top across the street from the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles. The surprise video shoot was shot during the 2003 BET Awards while numerous hip hop artists and rappers were arriving on the red carpet before the awards show. The video catches the reaction from many artists, including Nelly, Snoop Dogg, and Lil' Kim. "These Days" appeared on several Billboard component charts: number 17 on Active Rock, number 29 on Alternative Airplay, number 38 on Mainstream Rock Songs, and number 40 on Heritage Rock.

The album art is based on the classic Pee Chee brand school folder, featuring the faces of the band members.
