The State We're In is rock band The Dogs D'Amour's debut studio album, released in 1984. The album was produced in Finland and released on Finnish label Kumibeat Records. It was re-released in 2003, with a mix different from the one released in '84 (Tyla did not like the keyboards the producer overdubbed on the original mix, against the band's will).

Only one track was released as a single; "How Do You Fall In Love Again?", it also spawned the band's first ever promotional video. Two of the tracks would be later recorded for studio releases; "The State I'm In" was re-recorded for "In The Dynamite Jet Saloon" (1988) and then "Heroine" was re-recorded for "Straight??!!" (1990).
