Abort is the second studio album by the Boston alternative rock band Tribe, released in 1991. Released by Slash Records/Warner Bros. Records, it was the band's major label debut.

Eight of the ten tracks from Here at the Home were re-recorded for Abort. Four tracks were brand new: "Easter Dinner", "Joyride (I Saw the Film)", "Payphone", and "Serenade".

The track "Pinwheels" was also re-recorded for Abort but in the end was not put on the album. It was released as a b-side in the Easter Dinner E.P.

Three singles were released from the album as EPs: "Easter Dinner", "Payphone", and "Joyride (I Saw the Film)". The band shot a video for "Joyride".
