Converge Announce New Album ‘Love Is Not Enough’ & Share Video For Blistering Title Track

Converge have announced their first album in nearly nine years, Love Is Not Enough, will be arriving February 13 via Deathwish Inc. and Epitaph Records and have shared a new unnerving music video for the title track.

Boston metalcore group Converge have announced their brand new record, Love Is Not Enough, which is set to be released February 13, 2026 via Deathwish Inc. and Epitaph Records.

Ahead of the release, the band have shared a video for the title track, a relentless, ear-splitting track that reckons with the struggle of being compassionate and empathetic in the modern world.

Love Is Not Enough is the first non-collaborative record from Converge since 2017’s The Dusk In Us. The band would follow up the album with the collaborative LP Bloodmoon: I, made with Chelsea Wolfe and Stephen Brodsky.

Their upcoming 2026 release will be the first bit of new music from the core four members: vocalist Jacob Bannon, guitarist Kurt Ballou, bassist Nate Newton, and drummer Ben Koller. Ballou produced the new record and continues to see the band push the boundaries of punk and hardcore 35 years into their long careers.

“It does a thing that no other Converge record does – it keeps ramping up,” Bannon would share in a statement discussing Love Is Not Enough (as per Louder Sound). “And that’s definitely by design. Internally, we passed around dozens of ideas for sequencing because everyone interprets music differently and there’s no right way of doing it. When we do that, we always joke that we all have to be equally unhappy. But this is the one that works.”

Bannon would also go on to position the record as a response to contemporary heavy music, admitting that he finds the genre lacking realism. “I think that realism is missing from a lot of modern music of any genre, but especially our genre,” Bannon explained. “Things either go super raw and almost chaotic to the point where it’s distracting, or bands take the life out of what they’re doing by editing every aspect.”
