Epoch is the debut studio album by Australian metalcore band The Brave, released on 5 August 2016 by UNFD.

[2] Their first single since signing on with UNFD, "Searchlight" was released on 28 March 2016 via a mystery email blast.

[6] On 22 July, a music video was released for the track "Dreamless" featuring Northlane vocalist Marcus Bridge.

Mosh, in a mid-rating review, said: "As is typical of any artist’s first release, The Brave’s sound still needs some refining, but the guys have to be applauded for their bravery.

"[11] Chris Giacca of Kill Your Stereo criticised the band for sounding too similar to Bring Me the Horizon and Northlane.

He praised Toussaint's vocal screams, however he noted that the vocalist's pushed chest voice was his weak point and should work on improving it.
