Phenomena II is the seventh studio album by American metalcore band Within the Ruins. It was released on August 23, 2024. It is a sequel to their 2014 album Phenomena and their first studio album since their 2009 debut Creature not to feature a track from the "Ataxia" instrumental track series, although it features a sequel track to the instrumental "Enigma" from the first Phenomena album.
Guitarist Joe Cocchi stated about the album, "We had written a handful of songs, and we were searching for inspiration. We wanted to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Phenomena, because it was a pinnacle point of our career. I wrote a demo that reminded of Phenomena. So, it was his idea to create Phenomena II. The styles really aligned in terms of the unique guitar effects and the themes where each track tells a story from a comic book character's point-of-view."
