BIG|BRAVE have announced their 10th full-length, in grief or in hope, due out June 12th, 2026.
The trio have also debuted the lead single “the ineptitude for mutual discernment” along with an accompanying video created by guitarist Mat Ball, with color correction handled by filmmaker Stacy Lee.
A European tour is planned for this spring, with additional North American dates expected to be announced.
The new album is being described as a shift toward denser, more guitar-forward material. It also marks the first time longtime touring bassist Liam Andrews (My Disco, Aicher) has joined guitarist/vocalist Robin Wattie and guitarist Mathieu Ball in the studio, with the sessions said to have leaned into a live recording approach.
Wattie shared the following:
I wanted to explore catchy, melodic phrasing weaved throughout the intensity of the instrumentation and droney chord changes. All that I could reflect on was grief and hope; death and life; cause and effect; shared experiences of being a human person.
in grief or in hope track list:
1. what may be the kindest way to leave
