Restless Breed is the fourth album by the American heavy metal band Riot, and their first with vocalist Rhett Forrester, released in 1982. "When I Was Young" is an Eric Burdon and the Animals' cover.

Restless Breed was first re-issued on CD in 1997 by Germany's High Vaultage label, including the Riot Live 6-song EP as bonus tracks. A stateside re-issue followed in 1999 on Metal Blade Records, albeit sans the EP bonus tracks.[3]
