RockCrown is the third studio album by post-grunge band Seven Mary Three. It was released on June 3, 1997 on Atlantic Records. The album peaked at No. 75 on the Billboard 200 on June 21, 1997. The album's Billboard-charting singles were "Lucky" (No. 19 on Hot Modern Rock Tracks and No. 35 on Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks) and "RockCrown" (No. 17 on Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks).
In an act that disappointed many fans, RockCrown would shift into a lighter rock orientation compared to American Standard. Giti Khalsa explained, "With RockCrown, it was very much a response to going from playing bars and fraternities to getting a record deal to selling a million records in a year." Jason Ross also spoke about the album's change in an interview with Billboard:
