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 caused some controversy due to the fact it contained "flashing images", reason for which it was banned from MTV.[1]

Regardless of this, the album turned out to be decently successful commercially, since it reached number 25 in weekly Finnish album sales, as stated at FinnishCharts.[2]
