Solace is the second studio album by Canadian band Ion Dissonance. The album was released on September 6, 2005 through Abacus Recordings. The album shows the band beginning to incorporate deathcore influences into their sound, while significantly reducing grindcore elements that the band more significantly featured on their earlier releases.

In October 2023, the band would re-release the album in a remixed/remastered format provided by their bassist Dominic Grimard, as well as a vinyl and digital streaming release. ^[3]
