Royal Blood announces fifth album ‘Dead Company’ and new single

British rock duo Royal Blood has announced their fifth studio album, titled ‘Dead Company’, scheduled for release on November 13, 2026, via Warner Records. The announcement includes the release of the first single, ‘Ten Over Ten’, accompanied by a music video.

Mike Kerr and Ben Thatcher self-produced the 10-track record, which they recorded in 2025. The band described the project as a move toward a faster, harder, and more raw sound, intended specifically for live performance. The lead single, ‘Ten Over Ten’, draws influence from desert rock and features themes of endurance inspired by Kerr’s marathon training.

Ahead of the album launch, the band has scheduled three intimate UK shows in Margate, Guildford, and Southampton for late August 2026, all of which have already sold out.
