The album, entitled "Lost in Retrospect," will feature selected tracks from all of the Brave and Arise From Thorns (former band name) albums, including some songs that are long out of print. "Lost in Retrospect" is scheduled to be released February 20, 2009.

Brave's singer Michelle Loose said about the album "We are very excited about this collaboration for a 10 year anniversary CD with the new record label, Femme Metal Records. We can't believe we've been making music together for 10 years now and are glad to be able to re-release some of the older songs that have been long out of print. We are so happy to be working with Femme Metal Records and thank you for your support with this collaboration."

Brave's latest offering 'Monuments' showcases the band's master musicianship, from vibrant violin playing to memorable guitar hooks, a tight rhythm section and singer Michelle Loose's powerfully honest and heartwarming vocal. And let's not forget, the incredible production that cascade's over 'Monuments.' While some classify their music alongside such successful acts as LACUNA COIL, EVANESCENCE and THE GATHERING, BRAVE has worked hard to make a name for themselves over the years, refusing to follow anyone else blueprints. One listen to 'Monuments' and you'll agree with them too.
