Phenotype is the fifth studio album by Dutch progressive metalcore band Textures. It was released on February 5, 2016, by Nuclear Blast.

The album was recorded at the same time as another album, Genotype, which was set to be released in 2017. Both albums were based around the same concept, and thus could be considered parts of a double album. The band's sixth studio album with the title Genotype is completely written from scratch, leaving material from the previous Genotype recording session unused.

This is the first album to feature new lead guitarist Joe Tal, who replaced founding member Jochem Jacobs (who continued in his role as producer).
