United World Rebellion is a series of three extended plays from the American heavy metal band Skid Row. The first and second chapters were released on April 16, 2013 and August 5, 2014 by Megaforce Records. The final EP to complete the trilogy was scheduled for 2015 but pushed back to 2016. The first two EPs were Skid Row's final recordings with singer Johnny Solinger. The third EP now scheduled for 2017 will feature new lead singer ZP Theart. The group plans to release all three EPs as a theme album when all the EP's are released.

United World Rebellion: Chapter One was released on April 16, 2013 and is the band's first EP since 1995, and the first in a set of upcoming EPs over the next 12–18 months. The recording was released by Megaforce Records and sold 1,500 copies in its first week in the US. "Kings of Demolition" was released as a single and features a music video. "This Is Killing Me" was released as the second single and also features a music video.

Rise Of The Damnation Army – United World Rebellion: Chapter Two was released on August 5, 2014 by Megaforce, and sold 1,300 copies in the US in its first week. "We Are the Damned" was released as a single and features a music video.

United World Rebellion: Chapter Three, originally scheduled for release in 2015 but pushed back to 2016 following Solinger's departure from the band. The third EP will complete the United World Rebellion album.

Chapter One: Since its release, the album has been met with mostly positive reception from critics. Music Enthusiast Magazine described the album as "a maelstrom of nostalgic heavy rock, that sounds like what should have been the follow-up to Subhuman Race".

Chapter Two: Crash Crafton of Legendary Rock Interviews said in his review: "I thoroughly enjoyed the first chapter but this one takes it to a whole new level. They return as aggressive and angry as ever! ... The band is firing on all cylinders and is as cohesive as ever."
