The Bell That Never Rang is the fourth studio album by British folk band Lau, released on 4 May 2015 on Reveal Records.

The album is dedicated to the memory of The Elysian Quartet's Vince Sipprell, who died in January 2015.

After visiting Wasser in New York City, the band collectively decided to work with her on their next studio album.

Aidan O'Rourke noted, "It was when we got back and talked about the experiences and the excitement of the trip, we decided to invite Joan in to produce us".
