Take Them On, On Your Own is the second studio album by American rock Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. It was released in 2003 and reIssued in 2008. The album cover is a homage to the film The Third Man.
The album has a darker, harder rock sound than their debut album, and also contains more politically themed lyrics. The album reached #3 in the United Kingdom music charts despite receiving mixed reviews, and is almost universally credited as a lesser achievement than its predecessor B.R.M.C..
The 2003 release of this album contained the Copy Control protection system in some regions. The Japanese 2008 reIssued CD contains three bonus tracks: "Take Them On, On Your Own", "High / Low", and "Waiting Here".
