Last year, BIG|BRAVE unleashed OST. Today, the Montreal band is back to announce their tenth studio album in grief or in hope, arriving in June. The lead single "the ineptitude for mutual discernment" is here.

For in grief or in hope, guitarist/vocalist Robin Wattie and guitarist Mathieu Ball were joined in the studio by their longtime touring bassist Liam Andrews (MY DISCO, Aicher). About the record, Wattie says, "I wanted to explore catchy, melodic phrasing weaved throughout the intensity of the instrumentation and drony 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."

"the ineptitude for mutual discernment" is a glitchy, hypnotic dirge. Dive in below.
