Damage Theory is the third album by Russian cyber metal band Illidiance, released in 2010. Recording for the album commenced in December 2009, with drums recorded in February 2010. Of the 11 tracks in the album, four of them were re-recorded from the Synthetic Breed EP released the previous year.

The album features a guitar solo by Mick Priestley (The Green River Project), as well as guest vocal contributions by Tony JJ (ex-Mnemic / IconInMe) Scott Kennedy (Bleed from Within), Kenji Siratori, and Vasiliy "Ghost" (Akado). Hate vocalist Adam Buszko was also invited to do guest vocals but unable to contribute due to time constraints.

A new single, "Neuron Electrics Inc." was released on September 26, 2011.
