On June 11, 2026, Polyphia released the single "Can You Feel It", alongside a visualizer featuring clips of notable political and religious figures, memes, explosions, and other footage.[1]

On August 26, the band issued the single "Power in the Blood" and announced their upcoming fifth studio album, Be Not Afraid.[2][3]

On September 24, the third single, "With Eyes to See", came out,[4][5] along with a music video.
