Intoxicate O.S. is the second full-length album by the Finnish metal band Shade Empire. The album was recorded at Studio Perkele in Finland.

Intoxicate O.S. is the first Shade Empire album to include a video, "Chemical God." The video was banned from MTV due to some rapid flickering scenes that might induce epileptic seizures.

The album turned out to be decently successful commercially, since it reached number 25 in weekly Finnish album sales, as stated at FinnishCharts.
