The Bravery is the self-titled debut album by New York indie rock band The Bravery, released in March 2005 (see 2005 in music). The album is an upbeat affair, with dance-oriented tracks and has a sound reminiscent of 1980s bands like New Order and Duran Duran.

The first single from the album, "An Honest Mistake" was released on February 28, 2005. The UK and Japanese releases of the album contains the bonus track "Hot Pursuit." The version on the Japanese edition is a different mix featuring Gillian Conway (keyboardist John Conway's Sister) on vocals along with Sam Endicott. The Japanese release also includes "Hey Sunshiney Day", which was also released in the UK as a B-side.
