Despise the Sun is an EP released in 1998 by the death metal band Suffocation. It was the last recording before Suffocation's breakup (and subsequent reformation in 2003), and the last to feature guitarist Doug Cerrito and bassist Chris Richards. Like the albums Effigy of the Forgotten and Pierced from Within, it was produced by Scott Burns, although it would also prove to be their last album recorded with Burns, as by the time they had reformed he had retired from the music industry.
The last track, "Catatonia", originally appeared on the Human Waste EP.
The line spoken at the beginning of "Funeral Inception" is from Kevin Spacey, said in the 1995 film The Usual Suspects.
