Living Targets is the third album by German punk rock band, Beatsteaks. It was released in August 2002 on Epitaph Records. There was one line-up change from the previous album Torsten Scholz took over bass duties from Alexander Roßwaag. The album featured more hard rock tracks than previous efforts, including songs which were far slower and more melodic and structured. It aided the band's breakthrough into the mainstream which was completed on 2004's Smack Smash released on Epitaph Records and WEA.
