No Title as of 13 February 2024 28,340 Dead (stylized in all caps and with quotation marks) is the eighth studio album by Canadian post-rock band Godspeed You! Black Emperor, released on 4 October 2024 by Constellation Records. It follows their 2021 release G_d’s Pee at State’s End!, and was preceded by a single, as “Grey Rubble – Green Shoots” was released alongside the album’s announcement on 27 August 2024.

The title refers to the reported number of Palestinian deaths by Israeli strikes between 7 October 2023 and 13 February 2024 during the Gaza war, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.The post-rock pioneers channel the horror into epic, instrumental crescendos and mournful drones. Tracks like “Babys In A Thundercloud” move from despair to a glimm er of defiant hope, resulting in their most urgent and cohesive work in years.
