Cannibal is the fifth studio album by American industrial metal band Static-X, released on April 3, 2007.

Cannibal is the first Static-X album since 1999's Wisconsin Death Trip to feature guitar playing from original guitarist Koichi Fukuda, who left the band in 2000 and rejoined in 2005.

(Fukuda is credited as the guitarist on the 2005 album Start a War, but only contributed programming and additional guitars after Tripp Eisen's departure.)

Cannibal features an overall more straight forward heavy and aggressive sound when compared to the band's two previous albums.

The last two previous albums Shadow Zone and Start a War had a more radio friendly sound featuring much cleaner vocals more melody and a slight toning down of the industrial metal elements.

I felt like I was back working on Wisconsin Death Trip, where I focused on stripping away the excess as much as possible to write short, simple, catchy songs.
