"Planet Gemini" is the second studio album by American shred guitarist Michael Angelo Batio, credited simply as Angelo. After "No Boundaries", Batio appeared to take a more progressive approach with "Planet Gemini", and many blues-influenced riffs and licks are also apparent.

Two tracks - "Planet Gemini" and "Time Traveler" - were remixed and remastered with real drums for the 2007 compilation "2 X Again". "Planet Gemini" was also re-released on August 1, 2000 on the Perris Records label.
