Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild is the second studio album by American alternative metal band CKY. Recorded at studios in Hawaii, Pennsylvania and California, it was produced by guitarist Chad I Ginsburg with vocalist and guitarist Deron Miller and released on September 24, 2002 by Island Records. The album was the band's first to chart, reaching number 99 on the US Billboard 200.
In contrast to Volume 1, the songwriting for which was originally credited solely by Miller, Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild featured equal songwriting credits for all three members of the band: Miller, Ginsburg and drummer Jess Margera. Once again, bass on the album was performed by Miller (as well as Ginsburg), with live bassist Vernon Zaborowski left off the record completely.
Much like CKY's debut album, Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild was praised by music critics for its wide range of musical styles and elements such as its guitar riffs. Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild: The Video Album was released in 2003, featuring music videos for all ten of the album's songs. "Flesh Into Gear" was released as a single in 2002, reaching number 38 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart.
Recording for Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild took place at Audio Resource in Honolulu, Hawaii, Studio 4 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and 4th St. Recording and Westlake Audio in Santa Monica, California; mixing was completed at Westlake Audio. Production was led by guitarist Chad I Ginsburg, with vocalist Deron Miller credited as a co-producer. Ginsburg also mixed the album, which was mastered by Howie Weinberg. The recording process for the album began in November 2001 and was completed by February 2002.
