In the Attic of the Universe is the second studio album by American indie rock group The Antlers, when the Antlers name was still a solo project of vocalist and guitarist Peter Silberman.

An official CD was produced under the Fall Records label and was released on November 6, 2007, making it the first Antlers album to be released with the help of a record label.

This fascination led to the album's recurring theme of the universe and its vastness.

[3] Silberman also noted that the album carries a theme of "religious misdirection", inspired by his own tendency to find the wrong solutions to his problems in life.

[3] As with the full band debut album (and follow-up recording to In the Attic of the Universe) Hospice, there is a recurring riff that occurs in "Look!"
