The Art of Dying is the fourth studio album by the American thrash metal band Death Angel, released on May 4, 2004. It was the band's first album with original material in 14 years since 1990's Act III. The album reached number 50 on the Billboard Top Independent Albums chart in 2004.
Death Angel guitarist Rob Cavestany once explained the origin of the album title as follows: "That was actually an idea that (drummer Andy) Galeon brought in. He had seen an interview with Bruce Lee around that time, and he was speaking about this philosophy that he had gotten from the Tibetan Book of the Dead (a.k.a. the Bardo Thodol). He was describing the passage about the path you choose in your life, and the way that you live your life as the art of dying. Whereas if you are living in a morbid kind of way as though you're just on your way to your death slowly but surely, every day that you walk the earth, well, becomes the art of dying. Sometimes it's just the way that you treat your life that determines your destiny." The Art of Dying sold around 2,100 copies in its first week in the U.S.
