Rage in Eden is the fifth album by the British new wave band Ultravox. It was released in 1981 on Chrysalis. The album reached #4 in the UK album charts and was certified Gold by the BPI for sales in excess of 100,000 copies.

Like the band's previous two albums, Rage in Eden was co-produced by Conny Plank. The abstract album artwork was designed by Peter Saville, better known for his collaborations with New Order. All re-issues of the album since 1981 however have different artwork, due to licensing problems concerning the original cover.

The remastered definitive edition, released 22 September 2008, features a second disc containing rare and previously unreleased material. In addition to this, the original front cover artwork has been reinstated. The licensing of the original artwork currently only extends as far as the initial run of the physical release of the album (set at ten thousand units worldwide). Future editions feature the same artwork as used on the previous CD re-issue.

All songs written by Warren Cann, Chris Cross, Billy Currie, and Midge Ure.
