Devolution is the fourth full-length studio album from American crossover thrash band, M.O.D. It was released in 1994 on Music For Nations and follows 1992's Rhythm of Fear.
Following the tradition of ever-changing line-ups, this album saw Milano swapping bass for guitar as well as vocal duties, with Dave Chavarri on drums being the only other member to appear on two consecutive albums. Tommy Klimchuck and Rob Moschetti took up the guitar and bass roles respectively.
In 2004, Blackout Records re-issued the album with a different cover and enhanced CD content of a concert in France in 1993.
