Natural Born Chaos is the fourth full-length studio album released by the Swedish melodic death metal band Soilwork. It was produced by Devin Townsend who also sings on "Black Star Deceiver" and "Soilworker's Song of the Damned". Another guest on the album is Mattias IA Eklundh from Freak Kitchen who plays lead guitar on "No More Angels".

Coming after the well-received A Predator's Portrait, Natural Born Chaos is a very similar album, but with slightly improved production. The album comes in a limited vinyl version and features two vinyls with this album and Figure Number Five in white and the other black. The album was voted the number one album by BW and BK magazine in 2002. A video was also made for "As We Speak".

This is the first album with current keyboardist Sven Karlsson.
