Individual Thought Patterns is the fifth studio album by American death metal band Death, released on June 22, 1993 by Relativity Records. The only album to feature guitarist Andy LaRocque, the first to feature drummer Gene Hoglan and the second and last to feature bassist Steve DiGiorgio. Musically the album continues to expand on the technical/progressive style that began with Human, incorporating elements usually associated with free jazz. Just as adventurous are Schuldiner's lyrics which explore human facets including critiques of social norms, constructs and perceptions.
