"Breaking the Chains" is the debut studio album by heavy metal band Dokken. The album was originally released in 1981 in Europe as "Breakin' the Chains" on the French label Carrere Records. This version contains some different mixes and titles of songs from the later US edition. "Paris Is Burning" is called "Paris" and is actually a studio version as opposed to the live recording in Berlin from December 1982. The album also contained a song called "We're Illegal", which was later turned into "Live to Rock". The album was renamed and released in the US in 1983 by Elektra Records and reached #136 on the Billboard 200 chart.
