www.pitchshifter.com is an album by the British industrial band Pitchshifter, released in 1998. It was their first major label album and it sold just over 60,000 copies in the US, nearly twice as much as their next album Deviant, which sold 33,000 copies.

The album's name comes from the band's domain name - a relative novelty at the time of the release. The domain name registration was eventually lapsed; JS Clayden said "we carried the website for such a long time that it felt like a burden being lifted to let it go".[3]
