Royal Blood just put fifth album Dead Company into the world. Royal Blood Dead Company is out today, November 6, 2026, via Warner Records: 10 songs, about 32 minutes, already streaming, with vinyl, compact disc, cassette and digital packs live in the band shop.
Royal Blood Dead Company release date and tracklist
The English duo of Mike Kerr (vocals, bass guitar, keys) and Ben Thatcher (drums, percussion) self-produced the record after the tour behind 2023's Back To The Water Below. Apple Music lists the run as Dead Company, Swallow The Bomb, Ten Over Ten, Mother Never Told You, Nowhere All Along, Ride, Rear View Mirror, Take Em All, Tapping Out and The Closer. Copyright on the album page sits with Imperial Galactic Limited trading as Black Mammoth, under exclusive licence to Warner Records UK.
Two official videos already sit on the Royal Blood YouTube channel: Ten Over Ten, which arrived ahead of the album, and Swallow The Bomb. Apple Music frames the self-produced set as taut and robust, opening on the title track's riff and holding the groove through Nowhere All Along, Ten Over Ten and Tapping Out.
Royal Blood Dead Company vinyl and how to hear it
The official store at royalbloodband.com is stacked for release day. Standard black vinyl with a signed art card, inkspot deluxe vinyl, compact disc bundles, a store-exclusive cassette, digital download and merch packs (hoodie, T-shirt, slip mat, poster) all sit on the front page. Stream or buy the album on Apple Music, or jump straight to the band shop for physical formats if you want the signed card and the exclusive cassette in the same cart.
Release day puts Dead Company next to the rest of this week's listening stack rather than treating it as a one-album stop. Pair the new Royal Blood set with what else is already spinning on the shelf if you are filling a Friday cart.
Warner Records is the stamp on the Apple Music copyright line, with the band's own Imperial Galactic / Black Mammoth imprint behind the recording. That setup keeps the album inside the duo's own company while still clearing global streaming and physical on day one. The official site front-loads Dead Company above the rest of the catalog, so release day is not buried under a legacy wall.
Ten Over Ten and Swallow The Bomb already have official videos on the Royal Blood channel, which is the clean way into the new writing before you sit with the full 10-song run. Nowhere All Along stretches past three and a half minutes and The Closer finishes the set with a longer swing, so the album does not rush the ending the way a singles-first campaign sometimes does.
Why it matters
A fifth Royal Blood album landing on day-and-date streaming with two official videos already spinning is a clean major-label release move, and the self-produced cut keeps the bass-and-drums setup at the center. Pair it with Kings of Leon's O My Beloved, the upcoming Cage The Elephant Dying In Reverse pre-order, and the recent Queens of the Stone Age Perfecth drop if you are building a late-year rock shelf.
