Subhuman Race was the third full-length album from New Jersey metal band Skid Row. It was released on March 28, 1995, and shows the band moving from their original metal sound to one more influenced by alternative metal, with hints of Anthrax, Machine Head, Pantera and Red Hot Chili Peppers, while retaining the Guns N' Roses-style hard rock aesthetic on which they based their sound. The album's sonic range runs the gamut from the blazingly fast and aggressive "Bonehead" and title track, to chugging midtempo "Iron Will" to the saccharine "Firesign".

This would also be their last studio album with vocalist Sebastian Bach.
