Album Description
Available in:
Auf der Maur is the eponymous debut studio album by the Canadian alternative rock musician Melissa Auf der Maur, released on February 2, 2004 on Capitol Records. Following her career as a bassist for Hole and The Smashing Pumpkins, Auf der Maur recorded the album over the course of two years in various studios through the United States and Canada with producer Chris Goss. The songs featured on Auf der Maur were written over a ten-year period, from 1992 to 2002, throughout her time in Tinker, Hole and The Smashing Pumpkins.

Auf der Maur features a number of guest musicians and collaborators including former bandmates Eric Erlandson and James Iha, Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme, Mark Lanegan, Jeordie White and John Stanier. The album's sound deviates significantly from Auf der Maur's previous work and features a more experimental and progressive sound.

Upon its release, Auf der Maur received generally favourable reviews and was a moderate commercial success, selling 200,000 copies worldwide. Following a successful tour through Europe and United Kingdom prior the album's release, two of the album's three singles—"Followed the Waves" and "Real a Lie"—charted in the UK Singles Chart. A subsequent tour of North America and another tour in the United Kingdom led the album to chart in both the United States' Billboard 200 and the UK Album Chart at number 187 and number 31, respectively.
