The Will to Death is the fifth studio album by American musician John Frusciante, originally released on June 22, 2004 on Record Collection.

In 2004 Frusciante announced that he would produce six albums during a six-month break from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, with The Will to Death being the first of these. Following the long and costly recording of his previous album, Shadows Collide With People, Frusciante decided to experiment with recording music quickly and in a minimalist fashion, performing a maximum of two takes per track.

Frequent collaborator Josh Klinghoffer appears, performing drums, bass, guitar, and keyboard.
