In Our Gun is the third studio album by English indie rock band Gomez, released on 18 March 2002 by Hut Records. Giving the album a perfect score in his review for PopMatters, Matt Cibula wrote "everyone who doesn’t like this record is insane in a bad way. Screw Wilco; In Our Gun is sounding very much like the Album of the Year."[8]
