Metal band As I Lay Dying announced the completion of their ninth studio album, noting they had recorded 12 songs and intended to select 10 for the final release. Frontman Tim Lambesis teased two distinct tracks, ‘Polarized’ and ‘Retribution,’ and planned to seek fan input regarding the final track listing.

By mid-September, the band confirmed that their self-titled album will be released on February 5, 2027, through Napalm Records. The singles ‘Polarized’ and ‘Retribution’ were released to showcase the record’s musical range, described as spanning from melodic and accessible to dark and aggressive. This project marks the first full-length release following a major lineup restructuring in late 2024, with Tim Lambesis remaining the sole founding member alongside Chris Clancy, Bill Hudson, Don Vedda, and Tim Yeung. The album was produced by Clancy and Lambesis, and includes a guest vocal appearance by CJ McCreery on the track ‘No Way Out.’
