3-D is the debut studio album by American electronicore band I See Stars. The album debuted at number 176 on the Billboard 200, number 5 on Top Heatseekers, and number 22 on Top Independent Albums. The songs "Save the Cheerleader" and "The Big Bad Wolf" were both re-recorded from their first EP, Green Light Go!. The singles "The Common Hours", "3D" and "Where the Sidewalk Ends", were also re-recorded, having been previously released as demos.

Shortly after the album release, keyboardist/unclean vocalist Zach Johnson was briefly replaced by Chris Moore who only appeared on the band's cover of The Outfield's Your Love on Fearless Records's Punk Goes Classic Rock in 2010 before Johnson's return the same year. All of the band members were under the age of 20 by the time the album was recorded, with the oldest being rhythm guitarist Jimmy Gregerson who was 19 at the time.
