The Naked var et københavnsk indie-rock orkester som eksisterede fra slutningen af 1980'erne og gik i opløsning i 1999. Orkesteret startede som Naked Lunch, optrådte senere under navnet Naked for at ende som The Naked.

The Naked introducerede den eksperimentelle, støjende og forvrængede lyd fra den daværende amerikanske og britiske indierock til den Københavnske musikscene, inspireret af post-punk bands som Sonic Youth, Swans, My Bloody Valentine og Loop. Senere bevægede bandet sig i en mere introvert retning.

Bandets andet album, Pass Out, var produceret af Chris Brokaw fra Come og Codeine. The Naked spillede sammen med Come på bandets nordeuropæiske tourne i 1998. Steen Jørgensen fra Sort Sol sang lead-vokal på en sang fra bandets 1997 EP, Some Kind Of Beautiful.

Efter opløsningen forsatte de fleste medlemmer i Ensemble Orlando.

12. Naked are an Edinburgh-based group consisting of Agnes Gryczkowska, Alex Johnston and Grant Campbell, who mix cold, neon-lit beats, glacial bass and guitar sculptures, filtered under hypnotizing and ephemeral vocals.

Their music speaks to a post-millenial, post-digital urban ennui - non-belonging and the pure, absolute loneliness of crowds. It is about the interaction of accelerating technology and the inherent sense of a terminal decline between the physical and hyper real - between man and machine, our bodies, senses and the industrial substances and digital technologies we surround ourselves with.
