Brave Murder Day is the second studio album by Swedish heavy metal band Katatonia, released on 1 August 1996 by Avantgarde Music.

[4] The lead vocals on the album are provided by Mikael Åkerfeldt of Opeth, as Katatonia frontman Jonas Renkse was medically unable to perform screamed vocals anymore following health issues that arose from performing the band's debut.

The original version of the record was not mastered, but the 2006 Peaceville Records re-release finally represented a mastered version of the album and included the Sounds of Decay EP as bonus tracks.

The previous Century Black reissue of the album included the four tracks from the band's For Funerals to Come... EP.

All lyrics written by Jonas Renkse, all music composed by Katatonia.
