Give Us Barabbas is the fifth studio album of the American rock band Masters of Reality, released in 2004.
Material for the album comes from sessions for a planned release on Epic Records in the mid 1990s entitled The Ballad of Jody Frosty, which was shelved at the time, hence the change in line-up. The recording coincides with the live album How High the Moon, released in 1997.
