Punk Statik Paranoia is the third album by rock band Orgy. It was released on February 24, 2004, their first independent recording.
The album's style is a departure from the electronic rock sound that was present in Candyass and Vapor Transmission, leaning more into industrial music.
There are four different versions of the album, the final release in 2004 and an advance version used for promotion dated to 2003, each of which have an explicit and clean variant. The advance versions are missing some elements that were added before the final release. All versions feature the same track list.
