"Under the Influence — 21 Years of Flying Nun Records" is a double album including tracks by various bands signed or related to the Flying Nun Records label.

The album was planned as a celebration of the 21st anniverasary of Flying Nun Records. Bands invited to be part of the album were asked to record one or two songs. If two songs then one should be a cover of a Flying Nun song that influenced or inspired them and the other song should be a new and unreleased song of their own. These were all to be recorded on a single day at York Street Studios on 22 March 2002.
