"The Alternative" is the second album by IAMX, released on April 28, 2006. It was re-issued on Metropolis Records in the US on May 6, 2008.

The US and UK versions differ significantly from the original German/Swiss release. Many of the songs saw significant parts rerecorded or remixed, most noticeably "The Negative Sex" and "Spit It Out", as well as "The Alternative", "Nightlife" and "Song of Imaginary Beings". "This Will Make You Love Again" is among a handful of songs to see Sue Denim's vocals replaced by Janine.

The re-released versions also include a string version of "Spit It Out" as a hidden track.
