Disengage the Simulator is the debut extended play (EP) by American alternative metal band CKY. Released on July 1, 2000 by Volcom Entertainment and sold on that year's Warped Tour (limited to 2,000 copies), the EP shares its name with a song featured on the band's 1999 debut studio album Volume 1, therefore acting as an extended version of a lead single from the album. All songs featured on the EP were previously or subsequently featured on the compilation album Volume 2. In 2009 a four-track digital download edition of the EP was released on the iTunes Store. The EP cover is a still taken from the movie Sleepaway Camp.
