Ignorance Is Bliss is the fifth studio album by the punk rock band Face to Face. The album was released in 1999, and was a musical and lyrical departure from the pop punk or skate punk influenced music found on previous albums and EPs.
Though an 'EconoLive 2' tour was done in promotion of the album, the band does not currently play any of the songs from the album while touring. Trever Keith flatly refused to play anything from this album on their minitour, according to an interview video on their official MySpace page. In 2012, the band had a change of heart and decided to go on tour and perform the entire album acoustically. This album's song "The Devil You Know (God Is a Man)" is featured in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer first soundtrack album.
The album was reissued in 2012 on Keith's own label, Antagonist Records, with the songs from So Why Aren't You Happy? EP as bonus tracks.
Reception was mainly positive and many noted the shift in style from skate punk to more alternative rock sound.
