Breakdown of Sanity Reveries is finally here. The Swiss metalcore band’s new studio album arrived November 6, 2026, ending a ten-year gap since Coexistence and landing alongside an official video for “Atlas.” For fans who kept the band’s older records in rotation through the quiet years, this is a genuine comeback milestone.
The new album contains 12 tracks and documents a band returning after a long break rather than pretending the intervening years never happened. “Atlas,” the album closer, was selected as the latest video, giving the release an unusually reflective point of entry.
Breakdown of Sanity Reveries arrives after a decade
The group’s previous album, Coexistence, was released in 2016. Since then, Breakdown of Sanity stepped away from regular activity before gradually releasing new material. They introduced Reveries with songs including “The Hunt,” “Torn Pages,” “Hibernate” and “One Way Mirror.”
The new album is available through Blood Blast Distribution. The band itself has confirmed the release and linked its current “Atlas” video on its official website.
“Atlas” video closes the record’s next chapter
By choosing the closing track for the release-week video, Breakdown of Sanity have offered fans a glimpse of how the new album ends rather than simply repeating the earliest singles. The “Atlas” clip was produced by Mover Film, according to contemporary coverage.
Tracklisting:
1. This Is What You Get
2. Hibernate
3. The Hunt
4. Palisades
5. Blighthouse
6. Bottomless
7. A Promise
8. One-Way Mirror
9. Torn Pages
10. Stay
11. Vestige
12. Atlas
The album also arrives with an evolved lineup, including vocalist Kivi Brandle. That change is relevant to the sound and identity of the returning group, but the central news remains the completed record itself.
The Breakdown of Sanity Reveries release gives longtime fans a full-length follow-up after a decade, while newer listeners have a fresh video and a complete album through which to discover the band. No speculative promises about the next ten years are required.
