"Evolver" is an album by 311, released in 2003 (see 2003 in music).

Evolver is 311's seventh overall major-label studio album and the second recorded in 311's recording studio The Hive in Burbank, California. Despite the success of the single "Creatures (For a While)" (which reached #3 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart) and positive reaction from their fanbase, "Evolver" became the first 311 album to not receive an RIAA certification.

"Evolver" is an "Enhanced CD" containing a featurette on the making of the album cover.
