In/Casino/Out is the second full-length LP by American post-hardcore band At the Drive-In, released in 1998. It was recorded as a live studio album, with the intention of better capturing the energy and sound of their live shows.

The album marks a clear middle ground between the dirty, lo-fi sound of the their first album, Acrobatic Tenement, and the sleeker, more produced sound heard on Relationship of Command.

The album also features Jim Ward's return to the band, who notably sings his debut lead vocals on the track "Hourglass".
