www.pitchshifter.com is the fourth album by the British industrial metal band Pitchshifter. It was released in the United Kingdom by Geffen Records on 2 March 1998, and in the United States by DGC Records on 7 April 1998.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The record, which was their first released through a major label, sold just over 60,000 copies in the US alone—selling nearly twice as much as the group's proceeding album Deviant did (which sold 33,000 copies).<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
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".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Multiple songs from www.pitchshifter.com were included on the vehicular-based PlayStation games Twisted Metal 3 and Test Drive 5.
