Home is the sixth studio album by American country music artist Dierks Bentley. It was released on February 7, 2012 by Capitol Records Nashville. The album produced four singles—"Am I the Only One", the "title track", "5-1-5-0", and "Tip It On Back"—on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart between 2011 and 2012, with the first three of those reaching number one.
Critical reception AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave the album a positive review and rated it as three stars out of five, saying that it "resonates longer and louder than Feel That Fire even when it shares much of the same radio-ready DNA." In 2017, Billboard contributor Chuck Dauphin placed one track from the album on his top 10 list of Bentley's best songs: "Am I the Only One" at number nine.
Chart performance The album debuted at number seven with 55,000 copies on the US Billboard 200 chart. As of February 2014, the album has sold 294,000 copies in the United States.
