The Sinister Urge is the second solo studio album by American musician Rob Zombie. The album is the follow-up to his highly successful debut album Hellbilly Deluxe, released in 1998. The album was released by Geffen Records on November 13, 2001, more than three years after the release of his first album.

Much like his previous effort, The Sinister Urge features elements of horror film and suspense in both its lyrical content and its music.
