Port Noir announce new album ‘The Dark We Keep’

PORT NOIR have announced a brand new album!

The Swedish trio will release their fifth full-length record, The Dark We Keep, on May 15th, 2026 via InsideOut Music. Featuring eleven tracks, the album finds the band continuing to expand their dark, atmospheric blend of alternative metal and progressive elements, marking their first new full-length since 2022’s Cuts.

Alongside the announcement, the band have released their latest single, Noir, which serves as the third preview of the upcoming record following Complicated and Redshift. One of the heaviest tracks the band have released to date, Noir channels the raw intensity and emotional weight that shape the album’s wider atmosphere.

Speaking about the new single, the band comments, Noir taps into the dark and raw energy that signifies the vibe of the new album. We wanted to create something that relentlessly keeps building, like an overwhelming void of light that won’t give in. It’s a lot heavier than anything we’ve released to date, yet there is a sense of sentimentality and solace that guides you through the storm that is Noir. Lyrically it takes you through a seemingly endless night that bends you to its will. Where bliss and despair make you grasp at anything to get through.”
