"Misanthropy Pure" is the debut single from rock band Shai Hulud from their third album Misanthropy Pure.

A music video was made for the song, directed by David Brodsky. The video aired a number of times on MTV2's Headbangers Ball and was chosen as viewer's choice. It features text-treatments of many of the song's lyrics. Lyrics have long been considered one of Shai Hulud's strongest elements and when discussing the video with Brodsky, Matt Fox suggested that they be highlighted in some way or other. It is, reportedly, the first formal music video that Shai Hulud has made.
