Recurse is the debut studio album released by American electro-industrial band Finite Automata.^[1] It was released on December 29, 2012, by Beyond Therapy Records in digital format, and released on compact disc on February 22, 2013.

The album features reworked and re-recorded material from the group's previous demo-release Here Won No One, as well as reworked material written between 2007 and 2010. Its name is a reference to the computer science concept of recursion, and alludes to conflict that feeds back into itself.
