D.M.Z. is the fifth full-length album by American Christian rock band Resurrection Band, released in 1982. It was the band's final release for Light Records.

The album begins with one of Resurrection Band's most popular songs, "Military Man",. D.M.Z. is a split personality, featuring either blistering hard rock akin to Van Halen, or new wave-influenced mid-tempo numbers. However, long-time Resurrection Band fans consider Stu Heiss' opening 90-second feedback-drenched guitar solo to "White Noise" as one of the best moments in the band's history, and this song proved to be just as popular live.

Lyrically, the album focuses on individual stories of emotional disconnection and spiritual confusion, offering the Savior as the answer to both. For the first time, the band directly addresses the concerns of high-school age listeners in "Area 312" and "The Prisoner," a trend that would continue on future releases. Big social issues addressed on the album focus this time around on war and its destructive effects as well as the un-Christian nature of the military itself, repeated several times in "Military Man," "Babylon" and "White Noise"--hence, the inspiration for the album title.

This album was re-released on CD in 2004 by Retroactive Records.
