You feel it before you hear it. And once you hear it, you can't unhear it. A low, persistent noise throbbing in the background. Scientists say it registers between 30 and 40 hertz. It's been heard in Ipswich, Massachusetts; Auckland, New Zealand; and Windsor, Ontario. It has haunted the population of Taos, New Mexico, for decades. It's been linked to suicides in the UK. Not everyone can hear it. No one knows where it's coming from. They call it The Hum.

Converge have taken this mysterious real-world phenomenon and reimagined it as a physical manifestation of human suffering. "What if the Hum is the culmination of all the pain in the world, creating an audible signal across the universe?" vocalist and lyricist Jacob Bannon posits. "Something noticeable to others operating on a similar emotional plane."

Hum of Hurt follows Love Is Not Enough as Converge's second full-length release of 2026. With this album, the songs are more raw and exposed. "It leans more into being an emotional hardcore album, while Love Is Not Enough feels more metal leaning. In the end, we simply gave creative birth to another Converge record with its own unique identity and character."

Hum of Hurt was recorded and mixed by Kurt Ballou at God City in Salem, Massachusetts. Artwork by Jacob Bannon and Thomas Hooper.
