Melancholy is the third album by deathcore band Shadow of Intent.

[8] Melancholy marked a departure from writing strictly Halo-themed music, instead being what has been described as a concept album depicting mass suicides orchestrated by a demonic goddess.

Francesco Ferrini of Fleshgod Apocalypse contributed to the orchestral work on this album.

The cover artwork was made by Pär Olofsson, known for his work with Exodus, Immortal, and The Faceless.

[9] Shadow of Intent supported the album with their first major headlining tour throughout the United States accompanied by Inferi, Signs of the Swarm, and Brand of Sacrifice.
