In Recovery is the fifth studio album by American pop punk band Inspection 12, released on May 29, 2001, through Honest Don's.
It was the final recording with drummer Scott Shad, who died a few months before the album's release.
Critical reception AllMusic wrote: "Inspection 12's core sound may be melodic punk, awash in harmonies, but they add some intriguing variations to the genre. Screaming guitar solos are not that unique, but it's not one finds a cello opening a punk track, nor a Gregorian-esque chant closing one out."
