The Battle of Sealand is the first studio album from the American shoegaze band Airiel. It was released in August 2007 on Chicago-based Highwheel Records. The album is named after the Principality of Sealand.

According to an article on the Sealand News website, the members of the band were granted the noble titles of Lord in recognition of naming their CD after the micronation.[1] On 30 September 2007, it was announced that they would be the first rock band to perform at Sealand [2] [3]. However, the concert did not take place.
