Rockology is an album by former KISS drummer Eric Carr released in 1999.

The album features songs that Carr was working on before his death in 1991 which was completed by his former Kiss bandmate Bruce Kulick. Several of the songs featured were intended for use on KISS albums, such as "Eyes of Love" and "Somebody's Waiting". Others were written for Carr's Rockheads animated television series that never got off the ground, such as "Too Cool For School" and "Nasty Boys".

On December 20, 2020, Rockology was re-released on Apple iTunes and on Spotify, followed by a limited-edition vinyl pressing released for Record Store Day on April 22, 2023.[2]
