They released three studio albums: ''[[The Bravery (album)|The Bravery]]'' (2005), ''[[The Sun and the Moon (The Bravery album)|The Sun and the Moon]]'' (2007) and ''[[Stir the Blood]]'' (2009). They also released a remixed edition of its second album called ''[[The Sun and the Moon Complete]]'' in 2008 and an [[digital music|Internet live album]] called ''Live at the Wiltern Theater'' in 2010. The group's music has been defined as mostly post-punk dance-influenced rock. In April 2014, Endicott confirmed the band had been in hiatus since 2012 and that the members moved on to other creative interests. Seven years later, in July 2021, Endicott confirmed that the band is reuniting. ==History== ===Formation and rising fame (2003)=== Frontman-songwriter [[Sam Endicott]] and keyboardist John Conway were classmates at [[Vassar College]] in [[Poughkeepsie, New York]]. The two began a musical partnership, playing together in various bands in the Poughkeepsie area including a project with future ''[[CSI: Miami]]'' star [[Jonathan Togo]]. After graduating, Endicott and Conway moved to New York City, where Endicott switched from bass guitar to vocals and began writing music that would later become The Bravery. Guitarist Michael Zakarin joined after answering an advert in a local paper, and brought with him bassist Mike Hindert, a classmate of his from [[Georgetown University]] in [[Washington, D.C.]] Drummer Anthony Burulcich was living in [[Boston, Massachusetts]] where he had studied percussion at [[Berklee College of Music]]. After his sister's death, Burulcich moved back to his childhood home in [[Long Island]] New York to be with his family. On the day Burulcich was moving, while driving with his belongings in a [[U-Haul]] truck, Endicott called him. The band played their first gig at the Stinger Club in Brooklyn in November 2003. To promote their local shows, they manufactured 1,000 posters and 3 song cd samplers containing the songs "An Honest Mistake", "No Brakes" and "Public Service Announcement". Both items featured the iconic “Phoenix” image by New York artist [http://cfinley.com [[C. Finley]]]. The same artwork later became the cover of The Bravery’s debut album. The band self promoted themselves by handing out CDs and postering the [[Lower East Side]] of [[Manhattan]] and [[Brooklyn]]. The band also promoted themselves on the internet and were one of the first bands on [[MySpace]] to have a profile. Their MySpace profile pointed to thebravery.com, where the same 3 songs were available as downloadable [[MP3]]s.<ref>[http://www.thedelimagazine.com/bravery/index.htm The Deli – Interview with The Bravery] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071209091156/http://www.thedelimagazine.com/bravery/index.htm |date=December 9, 2007 }}</ref> ===''Unconditional EP'' (2004)=== After a few months of headlining and selling out small clubs, The Bravery booked a residency at the Lower East side club [[Arlene's Grocery|Arlene’s Grocery]]. The Bravery played every Thursday at 10pm in May 2004. Every show sold out and garnered the attention of many record labels. Around the same time, the band received their first radio airplay on the show 'Alter Ego' hosted by Paul Driscoll on Boston's [[WFNX (101.7 FM)|WFNX]]. Aaron Axeleson at [[KITS|Live 105]] in [[San Francisco]] and [[Zane Lowe]] at [[BBC Radio 1]] in the UK, also downloaded the MP3 of "An Honest Mistake" from [http://thebravery.com thebravery.com]. With three major radio stations around the world playing the MP3 of "An Honest Mistake" and sold out shows in New York, The Bravery signed in August 2004 to [[Island Def Jam]] in the United States and [[Loog Records]] in the UK. For the month of November 2004, The Bravery moved to the [[Stoke Newington]] part of London. The band imported their residency idea to London playing every Thursday at The Metro Club in [[Soho, London|Soho]].<ref name=autogenerated1>{{cite web|url=http://www.nme.com/reviews/the-bravery/7642 |title=The Bravery – The Bravery : The Bravery – Album Reviews – |publisher=Nme.com |date=2005-04-01 |access-date=2011-07-10}}</ref> The band toured the entire UK, France and the [[Netherlands]] between Thursdays.

The Bravery's second single "[[Believe (The Bravery song)|Believe]]" reached No.&nbsp;4 on the US Alternative Charts in April 2008, 11 months after the original release of the album. "Believe" stayed at No.&nbsp;4 for six weeks, becoming the band's biggest radio hit to date. Two weeks before the release, The Bravery played a number of special shows in New York City, including two secret shows on May 8 at [[Arlene's Grocery]], the very club that the band credits as the club where they were discovered.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nme.com/news/the-bravery/28239 |title=The Bravery preview new album at secret shows &#124; News |publisher=Nme.Com |date=2007-05-09 |access-date=2011-07-10}}</ref> The Bravery toured extensively in the US, headlining dates until June.

[[iTunes]] announced The Bravery as the first artist ever to pre-release a different song every week prior to the album release. On February 19, 2008, the first single, a re-recording of "Believe" debuted on iTunes. A song a week followed: "This Is Not the End" was released on February 26, "Bad Sun" on March 4 and "The Ocean" on March 11. While on the road, The Bravery continued working on ''The Moon'' recording in the back of their tour bus, in hotels and dressing rooms. In December 2007, The Bravery headed back into their New York City home studios to finish up their more raw and electronic version of the songs. In January 2008, the band announced the new release of ''[[The Sun and the Moon Complete]]'', a two-disc set featuring ''The Sun'' (the original Brendan O’Brien-produced 12 songs) and ''The Moon'' (the same exact 12 songs, in the same order, but re-imagined and re-worked by the band). It was released on March 18, 2008. A new album cover and packaging accompany the two-disc set. The Bravery's single "Believe" reached number four on the Modern Rock Charts during the week of April 13, 2008. It is the highest chart position for the band in the United States. "Believe" stayed at number 4 for six weeks. "Believe" went on to become a certified gold single in the United States. After a disagreement with the band's UK label, ''The Sun and The Moon'' was never released in the UK. Endicott addressed the issue for the first time in public during a feature in the November 4, 2009 issue of the ''NME''. "The big thing was the BBC counted us as the best new band of the year and at that point our label lost its shit. We got off a plane in London and there were billboards of us on the highway. Suddenly we weren't this indie band, we were the Spice Girls!" The band has since been in a legal battle with their UK label over the rights of ''The Sun and The Moon'' and the band's future releases. ===''Stir the Blood'' (2009)=== Keyboardist John Conway posted on the band's blog that The Bravery were in the studio with producer John Hill, who has previously worked with [[Santigold]] and [[M.I.A. (artist)|M.I.A.]], and that new tunes were "already taking shape".{{Citation needed|date=July 2009}} Throughout summer 2009, The Bravery performed songs from their forthcoming third studio album at various shows, including those whilst supporting [[Green Day]] on their 21st Century Breakdown North American Tour. These include "Hatef--k" and "Red Hands and White Knuckles". In a ''Billboard'' feature, Enidcott describes the new album as "more like the first record (in 2005) in that there's a lot of electronics on it, but it still sounds very human. It's also like the first record in that it's a party album. It's uptempo, fun music, although it does have a range of things. There are slower, dreamy songs, and our bass player (Mike Hindert) wrote a song ('She Is So Bendable') that sounds like a '50s ballad."<ref>[http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/267366/the-bravery-darker-angrier-on-slow-poison The Bravery Darker, Angrier On 'Slow Poison']. Billboard. Retrieved on 2013-08-25.</ref> The first single "[[Slow Poison]]" debuted on September 8, 2009.

The video for "Slow Poison" premiered on AOL Spinner Friday November 6, 2009. Another video directed by bass player Mike Hindert for the song "Sugar Pill" was released on November 19, 2009. On October 1, 2009, The Bravery leaked a video for their new song "Hatef--k" via the band's MySpace page. The disturbing video was directed by bass player Mike Hindert and depicts a sadomasochistic scene where the female character wearing a gas mask cuts a vagina into the male character using a knife. Mermaid dolls then enter into the orifice. The Bravery headlined an entire North American tour prior to the ''[[Stir the Blood]]'', December 1, 2009 release. Fans were able to meet the band after pre-ordering the album. An iTunes pre-order for the album began on Tuesday, November 10. New song "I Am Your Skin" was made available to download when pre-ordering the album. Like ''The Sun and The Moon'', ''Stir the Blood'' was not released in the UK due to a legal battle with the UK label. ===''Live at the Wiltern Theater'' (2010–11)=== ''Live At The Wiltern Theater'' is the Bravery's first live album and concert film. The iTunes exclusive was released on June 8, 2010 and chronicles the Bravery's sold out performance at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles from November 5, 2009. The digital only release features all 18 songs from the show including the band's hits, "An Honest Mistake", "Believe", "Time Won't Let Me Go", "Unconditional", and "Slow Poison". The official iTunes review states "it’s obvious that the NYC quintet has a symbiotic relationship with their audience — the more the crowd gives, the more the band delivers."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/live-at-wiltern-theater-november/id375193121 |title=Live At the Wiltern Theater (November 5, 2009) by The Bravery - Download Live At the Wiltern Theater (November 5, 2009) on iTunes |publisher=Itunes.apple.com |date=2010-06-08 |access-date=2011-07-10 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101114040404/http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/live-at-wiltern-theater-november/id375193121 |archive-date=November 14, 2010 }}</ref> On June 2, 2010 a brand new Bravery song entitled "Ours" was released on ''[[The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (soundtrack)|The Twilight Saga: Eclipse: Soundtrack]]'' through [[Atlantic Records]].

They released three studio albums: ''[[The Bravery (album)|The Bravery]]'' (2005), ''[[The Sun and the Moon (The Bravery album)|The Sun and the Moon]]'' (2007) and ''[[Stir the Blood]]'' (2009). They also released a remixed edition of its second album called ''[[The Sun and the Moon Complete]]'' in 2008 and an [[digital music|Internet live album]] called ''Live at the Wiltern Theater'' in 2010. The group's music has been defined as mostly post-punk dance-influenced rock. In April 2014, Endicott confirmed the band had been in hiatus since 2012 and that the members moved on to other creative interests. Seven years later, in July 2021, Endicott confirmed on the band's social media accounts that The Bravery is reuniting.<ref>https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=360797605615065&set=a.284119456616214</ref> ==History== ===Formation and rising fame (2003)=== Frontman-songwriter [[Sam Endicott]] and keyboardist John Conway were classmates at [[Vassar College]] in [[Poughkeepsie, New York]]. The two began a musical partnership, playing together in various bands in the Poughkeepsie area including a project with future ''[[CSI: Miami]]'' star [[Jonathan Togo]]. After graduating, Endicott and Conway moved to New York City, where Endicott switched from bass guitar to vocals and began writing music that would later become The Bravery. Guitarist Michael Zakarin joined after answering an advert in a local paper, and brought with him bassist Mike Hindert, a classmate of his from [[Georgetown University]] in [[Washington, D.C.]] Drummer Anthony Burulcich was living in [[Boston, Massachusetts]] where he had studied percussion at [[Berklee College of Music]]. After his sister's death, Burulcich moved back to his childhood home in [[Long Island]] New York to be with his family. On the day Burulcich was moving, while driving with his belongings in a [[U-Haul]] truck, Endicott called him. The band played their first gig at the Stinger Club in Brooklyn in November 2003. To promote their local shows, they manufactured 1,000 posters and 3 song cd samplers containing the songs "An Honest Mistake", "No Brakes" and "Public Service Announcement". Both items featured the iconic “Phoenix” image by New York artist [http://cfinley.com [[C. Finley]]]. The same artwork later became the cover of The Bravery’s debut album. The band self promoted themselves by handing out CDs and postering the [[Lower East Side]] of [[Manhattan]] and [[Brooklyn]]. The band also promoted themselves on the internet and were one of the first bands on [[MySpace]] to have a profile. Their MySpace profile pointed to thebravery.com, where the same 3 songs were available as downloadable [[MP3]]s.<ref>[http://www.thedelimagazine.com/bravery/index.htm The Deli – Interview with The Bravery] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071209091156/http://www.thedelimagazine.com/bravery/index.htm |date=December 9, 2007 }}</ref> ===''Unconditional EP'' (2004)=== After a few months of headlining and selling out small clubs, The Bravery booked a residency at the Lower East side club [[Arlene's Grocery|Arlene’s Grocery]].

Around the same time, the band received their first radio airplay on the show 'Alter Ego' hosted by Paul Driscoll on Boston's [[WFNX (101.7 FM)|WFNX]]. Aaron Axeleson at [[KITS|Live 105]] in [[San Francisco]] and [[Zane Lowe]] at [[BBC Radio 1]] in the UK, also downloaded the MP3 of "An Honest Mistake" from [http://thebravery.com thebravery.com]. With three major radio stations around the world playing the MP3 of "An Honest Mistake" and sold out shows in New York, The Bravery signed in August 2004 to [[Island Def Jam]] in the United States and [[Loog Records]] in the UK. For the month of November 2004, The Bravery moved to the [[Stoke Newington]] part of London.

[[iTunes]] announced The Bravery as the first artist ever to pre-release a different song every week prior to the album release. On February 19, 2008, the first single, a re-recording of "Believe" debuted on iTunes. A song a week followed: "This Is Not the End" was released on February 26, "Bad Sun" on March 4 and "The Ocean" on March 11. While on the road, The Bravery continued working on ''The Moon'' recording in the back of their tour bus, in hotels and dressing rooms. In December 2007, The Bravery headed back into their New York City home studios to finish up their more raw and electronic version of the songs. In January 2008, the band announced the new release of ''[[The Sun and the Moon Complete]]'', a two-disc set featuring ''The Sun'' (the original Brendan O’Brien-produced 12 songs) and ''The Moon'' (the same exact 12 songs, in the same order, but re-imagined and re-worked by the band). It was released on March 18, 2008. A new album cover and packaging accompany the two-disc set. The Bravery's single "Believe" reached number four on the Modern Rock Charts during the week of April 13, 2008. It is the highest chart position for the band in the United States. "Believe" stayed at number 4 for six weeks. "Believe" went on to become a certified gold single in the United States. After a disagreement with the band's UK label, ''The Sun and The Moon'' was never released in the UK. Endicott addressed the issue for the first time in public during a feature in the November 4, 2009 issue of the ''NME''. "The big thing was the BBC counted us as the best new band of the year and at that point our label lost its shit. We got off a plane in London and there were billboards of us on the highway. Suddenly we weren't this indie band, we were the Spice Girls!" The band has since been in a legal battle with their UK label over the rights of ''The Sun and The Moon'' and the band's future releases. ===''Stir the Blood'' (2009)=== Keyboardist John Conway posted on the band's blog that The Bravery were in the studio with producer John Hill, who has previously worked with [[Santigold]] and [[M.I.A. (artist)|M.I.A.]], and that new tunes were "already taking shape".{{Citation needed|date=July 2009}} Throughout summer 2009, The Bravery performed songs from their forthcoming third studio album at various shows, including those whilst supporting [[Green Day]] on their 21st Century Breakdown North American Tour. These include "Hatef--k" and "Red Hands and White Knuckles". In a ''Billboard'' feature, Enidcott describes the new album as "more like the first record (in 2005) in that there's a lot of electronics on it, but it still sounds very human. It's also like the first record in that it's a party album. It's uptempo, fun music, although it does have a range of things. There are slower, dreamy songs, and our bass player (Mike Hindert) wrote a song ('She Is So Bendable') that sounds like a '50s ballad."<ref>[http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/267366/the-bravery-darker-angrier-on-slow-poison The Bravery Darker, Angrier On 'Slow Poison'].

On October 1, 2009, The Bravery leaked a video for their new song "Hatef--k" via the band's MySpace page. The disturbing video was directed by bass player Mike Hindert and depicts a sadomasochistic scene where the female character wearing a gas mask cuts a vagina into the male character using a knife. Mermaid dolls then enter into the orifice. The Bravery headlined an entire North American tour prior to the ''[[Stir the Blood]]'', December 1, 2009 release. Fans were able to meet the band after pre-ordering the album. An iTunes pre-order for the album began on Tuesday, November 10. New song "I Am Your Skin" was made available to download when pre-ordering the album. Like ''The Sun and The Moon'', ''Stir the Blood'' was not released in the UK due to a legal battle with the UK label. ===''Live at the Wiltern Theater'' (2010–11)=== ''Live At The Wiltern Theater'' is the Bravery's first live album and concert film. The iTunes exclusive was released on June 8, 2010 and chronicles the Bravery's sold out performance at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles from November 5, 2009. The digital only release features all 18 songs from the show including the band's hits, "An Honest Mistake", "Believe", "Time Won't Let Me Go", "Unconditional", and "Slow Poison".
