Amped is an EP by American accordion band Those Darn Accordions, released on January 22, 2002 by Globe Records.

Recorded with only a five-member line-up, the smallest at that point of the band's history, Amped was a drastic stylistic departure from TDA's previous pop and polka-infused albums, featuring heavy amounts of distortion effects on their accordions to sound more like electric guitars and organs on what was the most overtly rock-oriented release in the band's discography.[1]

Amped was the final TDA album to feature original member Patty Brady, who left the band in 2003.[2]
