Broken Bones is the eleventh studio album by the American heavy metal band Dokken. It was released in Europe on 21 September 2012 and in the US on September 25, 2012.[1] It features session drummer Jimmy DeGrasso as Mick Brown couldn't record due to scheduling conflicts, which makes Broken Bones the first Dokken album without him and also their only album to feature bassist Sean McNabb.

Aside from the standard edition CD, a special edition was released in Europe with a thirty-minute DVD feature of the making of the album.[2]

Broken Bones sold around 2,600 copies in the United States in its first week of release and landed at position No. 173 on the Billboard 200 chart.[3]
