Western sous la neige is the fourth studio album by Dionysos, a French rock band, released 5th March 2002 and produced by Steve Albini. The title translates as western in the snow, and encapsulates the surrealist style of the album. The band's lead singer wrote a book 38 mini westerns in the same year.

This album broke the band into the mainstream thanks to their first radio hit Song for Jedi; this album is also a Gold Disc.

Two live albums Whatever the Weather (an acoustic and an electric version) were released, composed mainly of songs from this album. There is also a live DVD of the same name.

There are several recurring themes throughout the album. The tennis player John McEnroe is repeatedly referenced - the lead singer aspired to be like his hero before an accident ended his tennis-playing career.

The album was recorded in just fifteen days, mixing included. The album has a more natural and live sound than its predecessor Haïku. It was mastered at Abbey Road Studios.

The album was originally released on the Trema label, which has since been bought over by Universal. The album is now under their Barclay label.
