BIG|BRAVE have officially announced their tenth full-length album, in grief or in hope, out June 12th, 2026 through Thrill Jockey. in grief or in hope is an innovative vision of electro-acoustic, emotive sound, an endless bounty of overwhelming distortions and devastating beauty. The first single “the ineptitude for mutual discernment” is out now anywhere you find new music. It’s a powerful encapsulation of the ensembles’ singular approach to textural distortion, contrasting tides of bristling guitars against guitarist/vocalist Robin Wattie’s resolute voice.

There is a video out to accompany the new single by guitarist Mat Ball with color correction by filmmaker Stacy Lee.
