Demanufacture is the second studio album by American industrial metal band Fear Factory, released in June 1995 on Roadrunner Records. It followed their 1992 debut, Soul of a New Machine, and marked the arrival of bassist Christian Olde Wolbers, who completed what is usually thought of as the band's classic line-up.

Wolbers played on close to half the tracks, with guitarist Dino Cazares covering the bass parts on the rest. Many listeners rate it as the best thing Fear Factory ever did, and it is often called a heavy metal classic. It went on to earn a Gold certification in Australia from ARIA and a Silver in the UK from the BPI.
