Heredity is a 1985 album by Rational Youth, now down to singer Tracy Howe with numerous studio musicians. In retrospect, Howe was less than happy with the album, especially with the fact that it looked like he was using the Rational Youth name as a flag of convenience for a solo album. To date, the album has never seen a CD release.
Heredity was produced by Howe together with former Klaatu member Dee Long.
